The Otago Aero Club is celebrating its centenary by launching five Centennial Flying Scholarships to help aspiring pilots take their very first steps into aviation.

Each scholarship is valued at $5,000 and includes flight training towards a Private Pilot Licence, together with a pilot headset, logbook and one year's Club membership.

We would be very grateful if you could share this opportunity with any students who may be interested in aviation. Applications are open now for Otago residents aged 16 years and over.

Full details about the scholarships and eligibility requirements, as well as the online application form are available at:

We'd particularly appreciate you sharing this with students who have an interest in aviation but may not otherwise have the opportunity to pursue flying.

Please contact me if you have any questions, and thank you for helping us encourage the next generation of New Zealand pilots.

Kind regards,

Chris Hinch
