Our aviation curriculum provides students the opportunity to engage in
-
multi-disciplinary projects,
-
enroll in dual-credit classes with local universities, and
-
intern with local aviation industry firms.
The bedrock of our program will give students a solid understanding in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, preparing and inspiring them to pursue careers in the aviation industry.
Along with these practical skills, and of equal importance, is our mission to develop ethical standards that promote responsibility, good citizenship, respect for authority, and solid core values in our students.

CLASSES BEGINNING AUGUST 7TH, 2023.
Aeronautical Engineering & 3D Printing
Students will develop practical skills in mathematics, electronics, radio communication, rocketry, aviation, navigation, and UAS (Drones). They will use 3D printers to make parts for experiments, including building drones and rockets. They will be prepared to become licensed ham radio operators.
Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS-Drone) Remote Pilot Certification
This course covers the numerous applications for UAS, National Airspace System, UAS designs, and FAA regulations governing the operation of UAS. Upon successfully passing the FAA exam, the student will receive their FAA (UAS) Remote Pilot certificate.
Rocketry and Launch Systems
Students will learn Newton’s Laws of Motion as they relate to rocket propulsion. Students will design a custom fuselage nose cone to create using a 3D printer. They will also design, build and launch their own model rockets.
Private Pilot Theory
The course goes in depth and is designed to develop the skills and knowledge that will help prepare you for flight training. This is an intense course and must be taken prior to beginning of flight instructions. This course is now dual credit with Ivy Tech Community College.
Aircraft Design & Construction
The Aircraft Engineering Construction program will introduce the student to the proper use of tools in building an airplane, rigging required for flight controls, instrument installation, understanding drawings, and shop safety procedures. The student will also gain understanding of electrical systems, avionics installation and aircraft maintenance. Our students will build a real airplane, the Vans Aircraft RV-12 LSA.
