The Wright Brothers started it all. We're just following the flight plan they first chartered. And AOPA is helping to revitalize general aviation by attracting thousands of new students to flight schools across the country. With this program, AOPA asks members to take an active role in finding potential new pilots. And we've found students are more likely to learn to fly when they have a mentor.
Mentors nominate someone with an interest in learning to fly.
They then receive free instructional materials to help inform and excite the new student about becoming a licensed pilot. A series of mentor newsletters that offer valuable information on how to help a student pilot arrange their first flight, choose a flight instructor, set realistic goals, and much, much more. Two additional AOPA Project Pilot Student Nomination forms offer AOPA Flight Training Trial Membership FREE for 6 months. These may be passed on to more potential student pilots so they can start learning from this unmatched flying resource. Student Nominees will receive an AOPA Flight Training Membership Welcome Kit, compliments of the Mentor.
