Education Foundation   The Northwest Chapter in cooperation with the Museum of Flight is working to establish an aviation scholarship program to award scholarships to high school students who have the dream but not the means to become a pilot.      The Take Flight Program builds motivation and inspiration.  As with all Museum of Flight programs, Take Flight integrates the life skills of critical thinking, communications, problem solving and decision with the learning of very diverse academic subjects.  The hands-on activities force participants to use what they have learned in their classroom, analyze information and put their knowledge into practice.  It’s an exercise many youth never experience.  Activities build the self-esteem, the perseverance, and the “can do” attitude that parallels the evolution of aviation history around the world.  Flying began as a dream.  Museum activities help all children realize that they too, can accomplish their dreams.   The Northwest Chapter of the Distinguish Flying Cross Society is dedicated to helping those selected for a Take Flight Scholarship in continuing that dream.  The Chapter will work closely with the student, parents, teachers, and schools, to help that student receive an appointment to one of the military academies.
