This February, we're inviting Connections participants to step beyond the terminal and into the cockpit!
Our specially designed Aviator Experience offers a hands-on deep dive into the tools and techniques real pilots use daily. In these sessions, younger future aviators (grades K-5) will explore our Cirrus Hangar and learn about the Cirrus SR20 aircraft in a fun, interactive way. While older future aviators (grades 6-12) will try their hand at piloting a simulated flight from takeoff to landing.
Multiple time slots available for specific age groups. Open to Connections participants only.
