McKinney Aviation Academy · Student Aircraft Campaign
An opportunity to invest directly in the next generation of aviation and aerospace talent through a real-world, hands-on student aircraft build.
Students will participate in building a Van's Aircraft RV-15, applying engineering, technology, mechanics, teamwork and problem-solving skills to a real aviation project.
More than an aircraft, this is an investment in workforce development, technical education and the aviation industry's future.
Technical learning — Apply classroom knowledge to real aircraft systems.
Career exposure — Explore aviation, engineering, maintenance and manufacturing pathways.
Industry connection — Help students see the people and opportunities behind the profession.
Five levels of partnership, each designed to recognize organizations helping make this student experience possible.
