Virginia Aviation Club

Virginia Aviation Club

The Aviation Club at UVA is designed to expose students to concepts of flight, facilitate the use of the Aerospace Engineering Flight Simulator, and provide aspiring student pilots with resources and knowledge to succeed. The club is made to inform students about local aviation events such as airshows and flight education events, as well as to host guest speakers in the aviation field. A student taught class during the Fall 2024 semester will equip students with all the necessary ground knowledge to become a private pilot and students can be endorsed at the end of the semester to take their private pilot knowledge test. Finally, ever dreamed of flying an aircraft? Gain hands on experience flying a full motion flight simulator within the Aerospace Engineering building with flight simulator sessions where you can get introduced to the fundamentals of flight right from the captain's seat!
