The Air League’s Scholarship application forms for both powered flying and gliding are now OPEN! 🎉 The Air League, founded in 1909, is the UK’s largest provider of aviation Scholarships. Over the past decade, Scholarships and bursaries worth over £2 million have been allocated to young people across the UK. We look for individuals that have a passion for aviation and aerospace and the determination to succeed. Last year, the Air League was proud to award a total of 93 Flying and Gliding Scholarships. Data from the 2023 cohort of Scholars highlighted that 31% were female, which is far higher than the industry average of 6.5% for pilots. 49% of Scholars were under the age of 18, and 47% were aged between 18-25. Furthermore, one in three Scholars were from an ethnic or minority background and 50% of 2023 Scholars’ parents were not university educated. The Air League is proud to be supporting young people from all backgrounds to kickstart a career in aviation.

Our new aviation scholarship is “taking off” with RMIT University to support the next generation of pilots to complete their studies and commence their flying careers! ✈️ Through RMIT's Aviation Academy, Leidos is providing more than $100k of scholarship funding, which is available to final year students completing a degree in aviation at RMIT. The scholarship funding includes support for recipients to complete additional training, focusing on the specialised pilot skills that we require for our unique and diverse operations. This means students conclude their training ready for a career in special mission flying. We are committed to supporting future workforce development in a sector facing a significant skills shortage and the scholarship builds on our existing relationship with RMIT, setting up a “runway” for future collaboration opportunities. Hear more about the scholarship from RMIT Aviation Academy Director Lea Vesic, Airborne Solutions VP James Woodhams and Head of Flight Operations Jesse Young. #LeidosAustralia #RMIT #RMITUniversity #RMITAviationAcademy #aviation #aviationcareers #pilots #pilottraining #scholarship RMIT STEM College

📢 Calling all fellow aviation enthusiasts! ✈ Summer camps around the corner. ☀ As someone who's always loved airplanes, flying, and travel - I wanted to shed some light on aviation camps, and more specifically GIRLS attending aviation camps. These camps aren't just about learning to fly; they're about breaking stereotypes and showing girls that the sky ⛅ isn't the limit, it's just the beginning! By participating they're gaining valuable skills and building confidence and resilience that will serve them in any endeavor they pursue. They provide an incredible opportunity to explore their love of flying 🛫, engineering and everything in between. These camps aren't just about learning the technical skills of aviation; they're about empowerment. 💪 As an enthusiast myself, I know firsthand the importance of representation and support in the industry. Did you know 🧠 females make up only 5-7% of the pilot population. And for operational/administrative/managerial positions like those I've worked in, the industry as a whole still grapples with gender diversity. These camps are a crucial step in bridging the gender gap in aviation and paving the way for a more diverse and inclusive future! By fostering a supportive environment, we're helping young girls (and young aviators) build their confidence, chase their dreams, and break through any barriers in their way. So spread the word and encourage a young aspiring aviator in your life. #aviationcamp2024 #girlpower #womaninaviation #aviationcamp Short list of info/resources: https://lnkd.in/eGQEW5x2 https://lnkd.in/eX-XWcDR https://lnkd.in/ee6FfQ5C https://lnkd.in/eqWpmRq3
