Aviation Club at UC Davis

Join us to support the Aviation Club Support Fund

The Aviation Club at UC Davis aims to promote general aviation within the UC Davis student community and encourage students to pursue flight training. UC Davis is one of 25 colleges in the nation, and the only UC, to have an on-campus airport.

General aviation is an integral part of Davis and yet this invaluable resource is unknown to most in the student community. Our club bridges this gap by discussing aviation history and culture, hosting workshops discussing integral skills used by pilots in-flight (i.e. deciphering a weather report), and inviting guest speakers in the aviation field to share their professional experiences.

Gifts to our campaign provide general support for the Aviation Club at UC Davis, including our current priority of providing students with free introductory flights at University Airport! These flights are 30 minutes of one-on-one instruction with a professional flight instructor that allow for exposure to the cockpit environment.

With your support in this mission, our club will be able to allow students to experience the magic of flight first hand and provide an opportunity that few are fortunate to have: the chance to fly an airplane.
