You could fly into Mammoth or Reno and take an East Sierra Transit bus
to Inyokern.

Or you could fly into LA take the Flyaway Bus to Union Station,
MetroLink to Lancaster and East Sierra Transit to Inyokern.
Or fly into Burbank, take MetroLink to Lancaster and East Sierra
Transit to Inyokern.

You can often get the driver to drop you at the KM road junction
instead of at the stop in Inyokern
In any event, the only way I know of to get from InyoKern to KM is to hitchhike
