The ICAS Foundation is pleased to
offer a number of scholarships to help the pilots, performers
and flight instructors of the future complete the necessary training to
reach their goals.
Beginning
in 2010, our scholarship committees will consider all
scholarship applications received during the calendar year,
and make their selections in January. This new
timetable allows scholarship checks to be delivered in the
very early Spring, before optimal flying weather sets in
throughout most of the country. We will be accepting
applications now through December 2010, with our next
scholarship selections scheduled for January 2011.
