They also build model airplanes and rockets to specifications. They study and demonstrate extensive knowledge on flight theory, aviation weather, aircraft radio operation, aircraft cockpit instrumentation and STEM careers. We soar above other programs because we provide years of ongoing support to students interested in pursuing pathways in Aviation/STEM.

Testimonials

Laura was highly knowledgable and professional. Her demeanor was candid and personable. She was able to capture our organization's culture and passion within her work, while making stark determinations on the measures of accountability of our team members. We could not have anticipated that a complete stranger would be able to identify, assess and implement the tools we need to have a fully functioning Board of Directors in just the several weeks we have had to work with her. She has expressed her willingness to continue to support us as we grow, and that speaks volumes of her character. She indicated that she is very impressed by the work we do in aviation education and would like to see us continue to be successful. We highly recommend Laura for any project dealing with Leadership, organization and Board of Directors projects.
