This scholarship is for those who have already developed flight ambitions; who have done their homework and are personally knowledgeable about the process and practices to obtain their license, and have already take their first steps. This is not a full-ride; it covers majority of expenses yet recipients must be able to incur some costs prior to receiving funds. Most importantly, scholarship funds cannot be released until the FAA Airman\u2019s Private Pilot Written Exam is completed, so this key task must be accomplished early.
