In-Person Theory of Flight – Field Trips to the Museum

Field Trips to the Museum are designed as an opportunity to review and apply what is learned in class. Students have the opportunity to apply key concepts through an up-close look at our aircraft collection. Students will review the four forces of flight, control surfaces, parts of an aircraft, and the three axes of rotation in the morning. The afternoon will introduce students to pilot terminology and aircraft controls followed by a chance to apply what they have learned on our RedBird Flight simulators.

Program Cost: $12.50/ Student (Maximum 32 students)

Schedule: Bookings are available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:15 am- 2:15pm.
