Cascade Warbirds, an organization that promotes the restoration, preservation, operation, and public display of historically significant military aircraft, is once again offering scholarships for private pilot ground school with introductory flights to “inspire today’s young people to become the aviation pioneers of tomorrow.”
Deadline to apply is Feb. 24, 2025. Students are expected to begin ground school in April 2025.
Cascade Warbirds has teamed with several flight schools in the Puget Sound area of Washington to provide scholarship recipients with tuition, books and supplies, and two introductory instructional flights.
The ground school portion comprises classroom lectures, group discussions, practical exercises, and field trips over a period of approximately 55 hours. Successful completion of the ground school will qualify a student to take the FAA Private Pilot Knowledge Exam.
The scholarship, valued at $1,350, is available for students between the ages of 16 and 21.
