Aircraft donations needed for Build A Plane

By General Aviation News Staff · October 20, 2006 ·

Build A Plane (BAP), a non-profit organization that helps kids learn science, technology, engineering and mathematics by building and working on real airplanes, is in need of aircraft donations.

BAP places donated aircraft into high schools across the country that want to add aviation into their curriculum. It also works with groups that use aviation to enhance other educational objectives.

There are 27 projects across the United States, plus others in India, the United Kingdom and Nigeria. More than 100 projects are expected to be operating before the end of 2008. Kids are given project aircraft of all descriptions, from cabin class twins to Cessna 150s to rebuild or refurbish. Donations are tax-deductible.
