Help Further Aaron's Education in Flight School
Donation protected
Hello everyone! If you do not already know me, my name is Aaron Tenner and I am currently a third year student studying Aerospace Engineering at San Diego State University. Times have been tough lately with Covid and everything going on in the world however, I see this time as an opportunity to continue to further my education, in flight school!! I have dreamt of flying since third grade and still have sketches of planes from that time.
Flight School is not a cheap endeavor and Learn to Fly San Diego, https://www.ltfsd.com/ the flight school I have contacted runs approximately $285 per one, two hour session, including 50 minutes of ground training and an hour and ten minutes in the air. The Federal Aviation Administration requires a minimum of 40 hours in the air to receive the private pilot certification. This will total approximately $11,400, my goal amount.
Times are tough for many right now and I feel very fortunate to be presented with this amazing opportunity to continue to further my Aerospace Engineering education. I intend to use this experience to better understand flight and what it takes to put these massive metal birds in the sky. In the next two years I would like to also pursue my Masters of Business Administration, this will give me the ability to one day be a program manager for a moon or mars mission. Further down the road and over 1,000 hours in the air I want to go to space, to explore the unknown, to further the future of humanity, to be an astronaut. Flight School is the first step in this long journey to see the stars and anything helps.
Thank you all so much for your time and donations,
Best Regards-
Aaron Tenner
