Destination Aviation (6/23-6/27)
Description
Destination Aviation is our longest standing summer camp intended for 6th – 8th grade students. Experienced instructors will help campers dive into the world of aviation through experiential learning opportunities, hands-on activities, and flight simulation. Consider Destination Aviation as a camp for early aviators with little to no flight experience, but who are interested in pursuing their private pilot certificate. Campers will be introduced to the following: principles of flight, flight controls, flight instruments, weight and balance, aviation weather, airport operations, airspace, and navigation. Campers will then have the opportunity to participate in a 30-minute local exploratory flight with a certified flight instructor – observing first-hand the application of the concepts and skills learned during camp.
