Online Pilot Training Provider AV8 Prep Launches 2025 Scholarship for High School Students
Melrose, Florida, USA — Online pilot training provider AV8 Prep has announced that it has started a new youth aviation training scholarship, for any current high school student that wants to become a pilot.
The scholarship gives eligible students the opportunity to get free access to AV8 Prep’s Private Pilot Ground School.
The students have to create a social post, tag AV8 Prep, and get three shares to qualify for access to the private pilot course, which is a $399 value. Details and the scholarship application can be found here: https://www.av8prep.com/scholarship.
John Ellis, AV8 Prep’s Chief of Development, said, “We are proud to give back, and we want to share our love of aviation with the next generation. If you know a high school student that wants to become a pilot, have them visit our site to see how they can start their training for free. High school is a pivotal time to recruit future pilots, and we want to grow the pilot population.”
The Private Pilot Ground School includes the Private Pilot Diary, a 26-episode docuseries that follows a candidate from Discovery Flight to checkride prep on all of her flight lessons. “Jordan used the AV8 Prep ground school and completed her flight training with 43 hours of flight time, an amazing feat in this day and age,” said Ellis.
The package also includes Tower Talk, a course in radio communications taught by a 33-year air traffic controller who is also a CFI. Also included is a separate course on the FARs, a course of practice exams, and AV8 Prep’s new Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (PHAK) visual audiobook course. “We’ve packed our Private Pilot ground school with more value than any other course on the market,” Ellis added.
AV8 Prep also offers Instrument Rating, Commercial Pilot, and Fundamentals of Instructing ground schools as well. AV8 Prep is team-taught by flight instructors with more than 50,000 combined flight hours. Most of our instructors hold Airline Transport Pilot certificates, and we created our courses because we love flying, and want to help train the next generation of aviators. Also contributing to AV8 Prep’s continuing offerings are expert flight instructors Meg Godlewski and Dr. Larry Diamond, who author content for the company on a regular basis.
Ellis co-founded 107 School in 2024, and was the Chief of Curriculum and Director of Video Production for MzeroA.com from 2014 to 2024. AV8 Prep acquired 107 School and Ellis joined as Chief Development Officer in November 2024.
