Able Flight Scholarships

Scholarship Value: $5,000
Awards Available: 4
Award Deadline: Dec 31, 2024

Above all, candidates must be dedicated to the idea that they, too, can change their lives by learning to fly or training for a career in aviation. Able Flight encourages people with a variety of  physical disabilities to apply for a scholarship.

Learning to fly is a demanding endeavor, with long hours of ground school study and many hours in the air. This is not a program for those who seek a “weekend adventure” experience, but a program for people who are willing to work hard and remain committed to earning the privilege of becoming a pilot.  It’s not easy, in fact, it is demanding and challenging, and that’s by design. We want our pilots to be safe and competent, so training goes well beyond the minimum standards required by the FAA.

Candidates for all scholarships will complete the appropriate application form, including an essay on how they feel the scholarship would change their life. Following an initial review, finalists for Full, Return to Flight or Career Training Scholarships will appear for a in-person interview to be conducted either remotely or near their home. Able Flight will then select and notify the award recipients.

FULL FLIGHT TRAINING SCHOLARSHIP:

The Able Flight Flight Training Scholarship is designed for people who wish top earn a Sport Pilot certificate. It covers ground and flight training, testing, travel and lodging expenses as required. Applicants for a full scholarship must be available to travel for training for a six-to-eight week period without a break.

Training is typically mid-May  to early July.  Students must remain at the training facility throughout the entire training period with no exceptions.  Please do not apply unless you can commit to this schedule. Applicants for the Return To Flight scholarship must be available to travel for a one-to-two week training period.

An FAA medical exam is not required for Sport Pilot. However, if you have previously had an FAA medical exam and were denied, or if approval has been deferred by the FAA, you will not be considered for a  final review of  your scholarship application until your medical has been approved by the FAA.
