Formation Flight is a very flexible program designed to meet the needs of large groups. Based around your student’s aviation background you can choose which level of
Formation Flight would best meet your student’s needs. Each Formation Flight program is constructed of activity modules. Each of these modules last approximately 60 minutes and may include computer flight simulation, museum tours, video presentations, and other hands-on activities developed specifically for your group. Our education staff can tailor an experience that can last all day, with each student participating in each module through a rotation schedule. We’ve found that by breaking large groups into small groups, we can provide a high-quality program that is sure to engage and stimulate each student.
