A Summer of Great Heights for Future Aviators
From June 26-30, we ran a week-long, introductory aviation class in cooperation with DaVinci Schools in SoCal. The kids had a great time and got a lot of hands-on exposure to the world of aviation.
Our partnership with DaVinci continues this fall with an elective aviation class.
Stay tuned for more news, here and on our social media!
And for three weekends in July, we conducted a glider camp for Elijah and Amani, in cooperation with Chilhowee Gliderport, in Tennessee.
Thanks to many, generous donors, fundraising for our students was a smashing success (and donations are still open if you still want to give).
Even though poor weather prevented our students from getting enough training to fly their first soloes by the end of camp, Elijah and Amani will continue their flight training this fall. All funds raised to support them remain committed to their training, and we continue to cheer on these talented, dedicated students.
Keep an eye open for updates about their progress!

“We flew…around the coast of Palos Verdes and that was probably the best hour of my life. After the flight, I told my dad that I knew I wanted to fly for the rest of my life.”

“Thanks to my instructor…my knowledge of aviation grew. I learned basic aviation knowledge and skills and about the physics of flight. But, most importantly, I found that I wanted to experience it for myself.”

“Aviation got me to where I wanted to be. It’s all thanks to Dan because he always had this passion, and that passion molded me.”
