Aviation Camp

Currently things are looking up for our 2022 aviation camp and we are planning on hosting it again this year!

In the aviation camp students will be introduced to many aspects of the world of aviation and space through hands on experiences. From airplanes and aerodynamics to weather and flight navigation, campers gain students gain experience by visiting airplane hangers, talking with the builder/owners, learning about careers in aviation, meeting aviation professionals at local corporations and visiting the nearby MBS control tower (Pending restrictions at the time).

Aviation Camp is held at the Midland EAA Ormond Barstow Aviation Education Center at the Midland Jack Barstow Airport on Airport Road between Eastman Road and Sturgeon Road. Tuition is $95 for five days. Scholarships are available.
