Kids in Aviation inspires, encourages, and supports the next generation of flyers through hands-on classes and real cockpit experiences. The Intro to Flying class introduces how airplanes work with a multi-sensory approach, covering lift, weather, airport operations, and more. After a focused classroom segment, students head outside to examine a real aircraft, connect concepts to controls, and ask questions.
Tower Tours bring learners into the world of air traffic control, offering a guided look at how controllers manage traffic and keep pilots safe. Discovery Flights pair each student with a flight instructor for a short ground lesson followed by time in the air to practice basic maneuvers like climbing, descending, slow flight, and gentle turns—many students even take the yoke when they’re ready. Airport Tours and field trips round out the experience with a guided walk through the pilots’ lounge, taxiways, and runways, plus supervised time with the aircraft. For ongoing training, private flying lessons are available for youth and adults, blending ground school with flight time to build skill and confidence step by step.
Families who want a clearer roadmap can explore a defined path to pilot, short test-prep intensives, student pilot supplies, seasonal camps, and local classes. Across every program, safety, clear instruction, and encouragement lead the way—helping students see aviation as an achievable goal and giving parents a trusted place to start. Whether a child is airplane-obsessed or simply curious, Kids in Aviation makes the dream of flight feel close, fun, and doable.
