About Us
From Components and Test Cells...to the Field
At the core of Momentum Aerospace is a commitment to aviation excellence forged in the world's most demanding environments. Our principal founder, a Purdue University Aeronautical Technology graduate and licensed Airframe and Powerplant mechanic, spent nearly two decades at Pratt & Whitney mastering the complexities of the industrial life cycle of specialized jet engines.
Our Story
A Partnership of Precision
To bridge the gap between the world of manufacturing and the field, our principal founder partnered with two industry experts who share a relentless drive for excellence. Adam Ledoux brings a deep background in quality and supervision. His expertise was solidified on the front lines as a Field Service representative for the F35 program at Nellis Air Force Base. Adam ensures that the standards we set in a facility translate perfectly to the operational realities of the field. Gerald "Jerry" Ouellette brings a veteran's discipline and a specialist's eye for detail. Jerry serves as our analytical and contractual anchor. Jerry, a United States Army Veteran, previously served as a Contracts Specialist for the United States Navy. His experience overseeing contract administration for major Navy contractors ensures that our operations are as fiscally sound and compliant as they are technically superior.

As a Chief Operating Officer, Adam specializes in bringing the same rigor and precision to business operations that he once applied to the world’s most advanced jet engines. His career foundation was built at Pratt & Whitney, where he served in roles as a Manufacturing, Assembly, & Production Test Engineer. This foundation of experience provided unique skills to then transition into the pivotal role as a Field Service Engineer and Site Lead for the F135 Propulsion System on the flightline at Nellis Air Force Base. Today, Adam translates his 'zero-fail' & process driven mindset into corporate strategy. He thrives on optimizing complex systems and leading high-performing teams to ensure our operational endeavors perform at peak efficiency. Outside of the office, Adam can usually be found outdoors, hiking, mountain biking, skiing, or snowboarding with his two sons. With any other free time, he fits in picturesque motorcycle rides through the windy New England roads. On quieter weekends, he keeps his Engineering skills sharp through 3D printing and building complex Lego sets with his kids —always looking for the next thing to design or assemble.
With more than a decade of experience in government contract administration, Jerry started his career as a Military Police Officer in the United States Army, serving both domestic and international posts.
