GAPAN Scholarship for Courtney
Big congratulations to Courtney Challis who has secured a scholarship from The Guild of Air Pilots & Air Navigators (GAPAN) to complete her PPL(A)
The Guild has at least six PPL scholarships to award in 2009 thanks to the generosity of several sponsors. These scholarships cover all aspects of training up to licence issue for a candidate who is prepared to dedicate a considerable part of the summer to gaining their PPL.
Providing up to 45 hours of flying these scholarships can take a candidate with little or no experience to their flying licence during the course of the summer, alternatively they can "finish off" someone who is partially trained already.
The scholarships are awarded entirely on merit as evidenced on the completed application form as assessed by a selection committee appointed by the Guild.
There were over 350 applications this year - well done Courtney!
