US College Takes Students to Skies Through a Jan Plan Aviation Course

Maine, United States based Colby College took some of its students to the skies as part of the Dare Skyward, a Jan Plan aviation course in its second year. “Last winter Dare Skyward got off the ground with the intention of exposing students to the physics, history, and practical possibilities of aviation. The students experienced ground school, logged time in the flight simulator, and learned about aircraft maintenance and airport management. They also read books from classic works of aviation, including Beryl Markham’s West with the Night, and wrote a paper that synthesized their experiences,” said Colby College in a press release.
