Carl H. Christophersen worked for Harold Hoskins and Associates in Lincoln (now HWS Consulting) for more than forty years, providing engineering expertise for numerous projects at thirty-three Nebraska airports. He graduated from Lincoln High School in 1949 and received a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Nebraska in 1953.

Christopherson was a pilot and airplane owner, but he distinguished himself by helping to shape one-third of the active airports in Nebraska today, providing engineering design and construction observation, as well as project administration, planning, and funding application services. His legacy can be seen when using any of the facilities he helped develop.
