Events Summer Aviation Camps

Summer Aviation Camps

Five days of ground school plus actual flight time with a licensed Prairie instructor. Prairie School of Mission Aviation offers an excellent opportunity to discover if a career in flying is for you. Experience the adventure of the open skies and consider a life in mission aviation, commercial aviation, aircraft maintenance or air traffic control.

Our goal is to not only have fun with airplanes but to encourage a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.  It is our desire that no one will go through these camps without being encouraged in their walk with God, and have a good introduction into the aviation industry.

Additional Information

Ground Instruction

Over the course of the week there will be ground based instructional time in which we will cover a wide range of topics.  These instruction times will include Maintenance, Air Traffic Control, Theory of Flight, Navigation, Meteorology, Air Law, Basic Flight Maneuvers, Aviation in Canada and Aviation in Missions.  These are taught by a certified flight instructor and are the same lessons that make up part of our Private Ground School course.

Flight Slots

You will be divided up into teams and assigned an aircraft.  Each day your team will have at least one flight slot.  During this time your team will be taken up and will practice what was learned in the Ground Instruction time.  Each camper will receive 2 – 3 hours of actual flight training.

Game Time

We will have access to a variety of facilities in the evenings.  Come prepared for swimming, as well as indoor and outdoor games.

Devotions

During the camp we will look at the unchanging laws of physics that allow us to fly.  We also want to look at the unchanging God that created those laws and learn more about Him.

Open to anyone 14 – 18 years of age. Enrollment is limited to 14 campers per week. Cost for 2008 camps to be determined, it will include flight instruction, accommodation and meals. Camp is based at the Prairie Bible College campus in Three Hills, Alberta.
