We met during a Life Flight mission where Ken flew a patient to Jen’s transplant center for a liver transplant. This led to a fairytale destination wedding at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada, on July 17, 2022; hence the N number N717KK, with Ken Kelly being the pilot. Our goal was to design an aircraft that embodies our passion for travel, our relationship, and our wedding location. Inside primary trim and seat materials of mocha leather and Anthracite Alcantara provide a matching connection to the beauty of Lake
Louise. Each door handle has an embedded graphic of
our names, Ken Kelly on the pilot side and Jen Kelly on
the co-pilot side.

Al Mooney famously said, “make it strong, make it simple, make it fast.” We would add efficient and reliable. Our M20E model spends 100 hours per year carrying Angel Flight patients to healthcare facilities, and 100 hours connecting the family around the Southeast. Seen here, direct from ballet class, is our 2-year-old aviation enthusiast, Evie (aka, The Eviator), supervising the preflight and who loves to fly.

My wife and I love our airplane so much, we even included it in our wedding pictures. Now we love taking it from New Jersey to Tangier Island, Virginia, to have seafood and on a million other memorable trips. One day, as a flight instructor, I dream to teach my wife, Dana Marie, how to fly in our airplane.
