Former Air Force mobility program executive Kevin Stamey joins Beacon AI as advisor

Beacon AI added Kevin Stamey to its advisory team. Stamey retired after a 38-year Air Force career, most recently serving as Program Executive Officer for Mobility. His responsibilities included major airlift and tanker platforms, including the KC-46 and KC-135. Beacon expects his acquisition, sustainment and operational experience to help translate its AI pilot-assistance technology into deployable aircraft capabilities.

Why it matters

Stamey's background provides Beacon with valuable institutional knowledge about military aircraft acquisition and long-term fleet integration. His appointment could help the company navigate the transition from prototype demonstrations to operational procurement.
