High School Pilot Training
High School Pilot Training in Indianapolis
Fast-Track Your Teenager’s Dream of Becoming a Pilot
For the high school student who already knows their future belongs in the cockpit, standard summer camps simply won’t cut it. Our Take Flight program is a highly immersive summer experience built exclusively for teenagers in grades 9 through 12 who are completely committed to earning their wings. We bridge the gap between teenage passion and professional commercial aviation pathways. By placing your high schooler in the front seat of a dual-control aircraft alongside a certified flight instructor, we turn their ambitions into practical, real-world experience. This intensive week-long program provides an elite operational framework designed to build deep pilot command skills, unlock premier university entry pipelines, and launch an extraordinary aerospace career.
Elite Technical Hubs and Flight Field Operations
Unrivaled Access to Major Flight Academies and Infrastructure
Aviation careers are built on specialized training networks and elite industry connections. Our Take Flight cohort moves directly behind the scenes of major military, corporate, and academic facilities across the region, giving high schoolers professional visibility that traditional training paths cannot replicate.
Real Flight Time with Certified Instructors
Your teenager climbs directly into the front seat of an operational single-engine aircraft. Paired with a certified commercial pilot, they don't just watch—they actively take the controls, configure in-flight headings, manage airspeed arrays, and feel exactly what it takes to pilot a real airplane.
The University Technology Pipeline
Students step straight onto world-class aviation campuses to explore future academic goals. Cohorts tour the campus of Purdue University, explore Ohio State University, and access the program spaces of Vincennes University at the Purdue University Aviation Technology Center, located right on-site at the Indianapolis International Airport.
Strategic Cargo and Military Expeditions
Our students gain premier access to restricted operational environments. High schoolers take private tours of Wright Patterson Air Force Museum in Ohio, explore Grissom Air Force Base infrastructure, and step directly onto an active FedEx cargo airplane to sit in the heavy commercial cockpit and talk strategy with professional transport pilots.
The Career Acceleration Blueprint
College Applications, Resumes, and Financial Spacing
Earning pilot hours is only one half of the runway. To protect families from operational bottlenecks and high-cost entry errors, our professional mentors conduct advanced technical workshops directly inside the camp to prepare your student for immediate academic and institutional recruitment.
• College Application Coaching: We guide high schoolers through navigating application paths for competitive collegiate flight schools and university technology programs.
• Professional Resume Building: We teach students how to translate their practical simulator lab metrics, live flight hours, and technical airfield experience into a powerful aerospace resume.
• Scholarship Navigation Systems: Pilot training require strategic investment. We actively instruct teenagers on how to identify, apply for, and secure corporate, private, and non-profit flight scholarships to fully fund their future training milestones.
Complete Logistics Coordination on the Ground
Full Professional Management with Zero Stress
We know that balancing a high school student's career preparation with a busy family schedule can create an operational bottleneck. NAYR Foundation handles all on-ground logistics smoothly so you can focus entirely on celebrating your teen's milestones.
Our All-Inclusive Care Plan:
Secure group safety transportation routes, balanced daily hot meals, snacks, and refreshing beverages are fully included in the camp tuition layout. We manage all airfield facility transit lines, keep your student fueled through rigorous lab tracks, and completely eliminate daily brown-bag packing requirements.
Guarantee Your Student's Cockpit Station Before Slots Close
Because live cockpit assignments, regional university tour pathways, and secure facility access passes require fixed logistics structures, enrollment space for our high school Indianapolis cohorts is heavily restricted.
