It is YAA’s stated purpose to bolster the ranks of young people learning to fly and/or choosing careers in aviation so the United States can maintain a viable domestic aviation industry and continue as the world leader in aviation technology, training, and manufacturing.
YAA holds various hands-on educational and engaging programs throughout the year.
