Deadline approaches to apply for scholarship

By General Aviation News Staff · May 26, 2016 ·

FREDERICK, Maryland — There are only a handful of days left to apply for a $500 aviation scholarship offered for student pilots and pilots to help further their training.

Sponsored by aviation insurance broker Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR), the “Get into the AIR” scholarship can be used towards any phase of flight training, a flight review, written exam, instrument proficiency check or a check ride.

AIR is seeking an applicant whose essay and recommendation letter best describes their goals, drive and involvement in the aviation industry.

The scholarship winner will be announced at the 2016 EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh.

The deadline to enter is June 15.

Scholarship applications are available for download here.
