By General Aviation News Staff · May 17, 2024 ·

Thanks to donations from the Adam Scripps Foundation and A is For Airplane Inc., five $3,000 scholarships will be awarded to Texas teens to attend Crosswind Aviation’s Camp CAVU at Gillespie County Airport (T82) in Fredericksburg, Texas.

The summer camp, for students between the ages of 15 to 18, includes a 40-hour online ground school, as well as six in-person sessions at the airport to discuss flight planning and weather, as well as seven hours of flight training.

The $3,000 fee for the camp covers basic pilot supplies, a headset, books, and flight bag.

To apply for a scholarship, contact Gwen Fullbrook, owner of Crosswind Aviation, at 830-456-2623 or email [email protected].

Scholarships will be awarded June 2, 2024. The camp starts June 15 and runs through the summer.
