Young Aviators Summer Program

The Young Aviators Summer Program takes place within the San Carlos Flight Center, where participants are exposed to a wide range of aircraft and three flight simulators in the office. The program uses real-world, scenario-based lessons and follows a consistent syllabus used by instructors and staff. Ground schools in this setting include lectures taught by the Chief Pilot team and bonus workshops, and the fleet is serviced in-house by a dedicated maintenance and flight line team, with aircraft described as clean, safe, and comfortable.
