Kenneth Morris

Kenneth, known to everyone as Kenny, is the President of Vision Aviation Services Inc. From a family of helicopter mechanics and pilots, Kenny opted to venture away from rotorcraft and focused on fixed wing aviation. When he decided to enter the aviation industry he asked his grandfather, Bill Zea, which direction he should go, since his grandfather was not only in aviation management, but a skilled mechanic, pilot, and engineer as well. He was told that getting his A&P first was the best plan since he could always fall back on that if all else fails. Kenny went on to get his A&P and quickly began to make a name for himself in the aviation community. Like his grandfather, his leadership skills, high level of troubleshooting and tireless work ethic quickly propelled him up the ranks in aviation. His desire of gaining knowledge in all aspects of aviation led to him to not only managing the commercial airline maintenance at Greenville-Spartanburg Intl. Airport but also assist in maintaining and managing of Part 135, Part 145, and Part 91 operations as well. Kenny began to notice that the “industry standard” that was implemented could be improved to guarantee the highest level of services and affordability for customers, and with the assisting of Jamin and Napoleon, and with the support of his friends and colleagues, he propelled his dream into action, and his Vision became a reality in 2023. Kenny is currently working on his Private Pilot license, and continues to strives for more knowledge every day. When he is not focusing on aviation, he enjoys spending time with his family.

Jamin Vatalaro

Jamin is the Vice President of Vision Aviation Services. He got his start in aviation in 2007 when he joined the Marine Corps to turn wrenches on KC-130’s. In 2013, after leaving military service he accepted a position with L-3 Vertex to establish and support the Kuwait Air Force’s maintenance program for their fleet of KC-130’s. After 1 year in Kuwait, he returned to Daytona Beach, FL where he earned his A&P license before moving to Tampa, Fl to work heavy maintenance on Airbus A320’s. Shortly thereafter in 2016, he was offered a higher position to return to Kuwait as a quality assurance representative for their KC-130 program where he served until returning to his hometown of Spartanburg, South Carolina in 2018. Upon returning home he began pursuing his pilot ratings and accepted a position as an A&P mechanic with PSA Airlines at GSP airport. He earned his private pilots license and instrument rating between 2018 and 2020 when he decided to take a leave of absence from the work force to spend time travelling the United States. In February of 2022, Jamin was hired at SAI Flight Support at GSP airport to support their myriad of part 135 corporate aircraft, their part 145 repair station, as well as supporting part 121 aircraft-on-ground (AOG) maintenance for air carriers that service GSP airport. While at SAI, Jamin earned his commercial pilots license for single engine land airplanes. By 2023, air carrier operations at GSP had returned to their pre-Covid 19 levels, prompting Jamin and Kenneth to propose separating the part 121 AOG operations from SAI’s part 135 operations and thus began Vision Aviation Services.
