Bursary Winners 2007
The Royal Aero Club Trust 2007 Bursaries for Youngsters Wishing to Progress in Air Sport & Aviation Associated Activities.
In 2002 the Royal Aero Club Trust as part of its Flying for Youth Program (FfY) launched a Bursary Scheme for young people between 16 and 21, to provide financial assistance for those wishing to upgrade their existing qualification in a wide range of air sports and aviation related activities. To be eligible they have to provide proof that they are a member of one of the Royal Aero Club's air sports association.
