First Scholarships Of Their Kind Granted To College-Bound
Aviation Students
EAA Warbird Chapter 17, along with EAA Chapters 268 and 690 are
providing an EAA AeroScholars scholarship for a 16-year-old South
Atlanta High School student to pursue aviation. Liz Porter, Warbird
Chapter 17, coordinated the effort. The scholarship is the first
EAA AeroScholars scholarship granted by EAA Chapters in Georgia and
allows junior Derrick Poole to enroll in Fundamentals of Aviation
Science, a web-based course for high school students that offers
college credit.
