Flight Expo, Inc - John Sandberg Scholarships
Flight Expo, Inc. is currently taking applications for our 2023 Private Pilot's License Scholarship!
Obtaining your Private Pilot’s License (PPL) is your first step to becoming a
professional pilot. Boeing predicts that aviation will need more than 600,000 new pilots and about the same number of technicians by 2026 to meet returning demand for air travel post-Covid. If you choose to continue your education past the PPL, exciting career opportunities such as commercial pilots, copilots, and flight engineers follow.
