Citing “an outpouring of financial support,” the Cascade Warbirds has extended its scholarship application deadline to March 31, 2022.
The scholarship, valued at $1,350, is available for students between the ages of 16 and 21.
Recognizing the cost of flight training required for a pilot’s license, the program offers an additional $2,500 Continuing Aviation Education Grant to one scholarship recipient who intends to earn their FAA private pilot certificate within the following year. Applicants for the additional scholarship must complete the ground course, both introductory flights, and submit an essay by Sept. 30 of the scholarship year, officials explained.
