Gateway Youth Aeronautical Foundation Begins Intro to Flight Program

The Gateway Youth Aeronautical Foundation (GYAF) launched the Intro to Flight Program on Saturday at their Creve Coeur Airport facility. The GYAF is partnering with Piston Aviation, also located at the airport, and local CFIs to provide two sessions each week for area youth aged 14-25. Each session of the program, led by CFI Dave Kleinschmidt, covers a different aspect of flight through academic instruction and practical experience on state-of-the-art virtual reality flight simulators. The first four sessions have been reserved, and more slots are available in the spring. Register here for the next available session. 

The Gateway Youth Aeronautical Foundation and Piston Aviation are also offering a 50% discount on Discovery Flights when registering through the GYAF website. Discovery Flights are flown with a Piston Aviation CFI and give the student actual flight experience. Register for your Discovery Flight here:
