Able Flight Student Pilots To Benefit From ForeFlight Donation

Providing Software For Students To Use During Training

When the next Able Flight scholarship winners prepare for a flight, they'll have the option of doing so with ForeFlight's Mobile HD software. ForeFlight, a leading provider of aviation software for pilots, is the newest sponsor of Able Flight's unique flight training program for people with physical disabilities.

In addition to a financial donation for the scholarship fund, ForeFlight will provide software for  the nonprofit's student pilots to use during their training. Jason Miller, co-founder of ForeFlight said, "ForeFlight is exceptionally pleased to help Able Flight in their efforts. Flying is true freedom, and Able Flight provides that freedom to so many wonderful people. It's truly a privilege to sponsor that work."

"We're honored to have ForeFlight  join us in our mission to use aviation to change the lives of people with disabilities," said Charles Stites of Able Flight. "ForeFlight's co-founders  Tyson Weihs and Jason Miller are both pilots, and they clearly understand  the impact that learning to fly can have on  people who only need an opportunity to prove their abilities. It has been amazing to see their company's growth over the last few years, and we're excited that our student pilots will have the opportunity to use their software."
