Who we are
Founded in 2013, our charity provides young people in Scotland with flying opportunities to build self-confidence, self-belief, and vital life skills. While our focus is on personal development, we also raise awareness of aviation and its diverse career paths. So far, we’ve awarded 30 flight scholarships, hosted careers days for over 350 students, and partnered with educational bodies and industry experts to inspire the next generation.
Our key partners include Skills Development Scotland, Developing Youth Workforce, the Scottish Aero Club, Royal Air Force, ACS Aviation, and several local aviation organisations. These partnerships allow us to offer hands-on expertise and resources, creating meaningful opportunities for young people to explore aviation.
Although we don’t currently have formal mentorship or career guidance programmes, we do help participants connect with professionals in the industry. Looking ahead, our goal is to expand access to flying opportunities through more careers days and increased scholarship capacity.
Our trustees bring a wealth of experience as professional pilots, amateur flyers, and educators, driving the charity’s mission with passion and expertise. While we don’t rely on volunteers at present, we’re always happy to hear from those interested in supporting our cause and exploring how their skills could help us grow.
