Youth Flight Program
The WINFC Youth Flight Courses offer basic and
advanced youth courses for ages 13 through
18.
The basic course consists of a 4-day course to
introduce young people to aviation. The course includes basic ground
instruction, tours of NAS Whidbey Island facilities and culminates in a local
flight with an experienced flight instructor in one of the WINFC
airplanes.
The advanced flight course picks up where the
basic leaves off including 12 hours of ground instruction on navigation,
communications and flight planning. The course wraps up with a cross-country
flight to nearby airports and the opportunity to put the knowledge to work
during an actual flight.
