The Young Falcons program is built to give our youth a place to learn and experience aviation in safe environment. Our vision is to create a community of future aviators with a focus on education, training and safety. This program is solely operated by Pacific States Aviation without any affiliation with any aviation organizations. This is a collective effort of all the volunteers involved in this program with the support of Pacific States Aviation. If we don't inspire our future aviators then who will?
We are very excited to host our first annual Aviation Camp this September. The camp will be for two days which will include, an introduction to aviation, classroom teaching, flying our simulators, a visit to the Concord Air Traffic Control Tower, hands on experience in our aircraft maintenance shop, and of course flying a Cessna 172 aircraft. Each Young Falcon will have to qualify for this program by filling out an application and writing an essay on why they should be the one selected for this Aviation Camp. We are limiting the number for Young Falcons participating to a maximum of 10. The deadline to submit applications is September 1, 2024. Please find the camp details and application below. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Kimmie Snow at kimmie@psa.aero
