Ever Wondered What It Takes to Learn to Fly? AeroVenture Opens Its Doors for National Aviation Day

MANSFIELD, Mass. — In celebration of National Aviation Day on August 19, AeroVenture will invite members of the community to Mansfield Municipal Airport for a free Learn to Fly seminar at 6:30 p.m.

The evening is designed for anyone who has ever looked up at an airplane and wondered what it would actually take to learn to fly. Attendees will get an inside look at how flight training works, what it takes to become an aviator, what to expect during the learning process, and how someone can take their first steps into general aviation.

Guests will also have an opportunity to learn more about aircraft, airport operations, flight training, and the experiences available to aspiring aviators at their local airport.

AeroVenture Founder and CEO George Charles Allen, a nationally recognized, award-winning flight instructor and aviation educator, will lead the program and answer attendees' questions.

“Many people are fascinated by aviation but may think learning to fly is something that is out of reach or difficult to begin,” Allen said. “National Aviation Day gives us a great opportunity to open the doors, welcome people to the airport, and show them what becoming an aviator can actually look like.”

The seminar is free and open to the public. Seats are limited. Registration required.
