GFT Aerospace College has the program for you. Our Summer Wings Camp will give you the exposure to know if becoming a pilot is in your future. This two week summer flight program is jam-packed with excitement and activities that will give you lots to talk about as you head back to school in the fall.

All training completed may be credited towards future aviation licences.
