Aerospace Awareness Inc

Aerospace Awareness Cadets had their eyes on the sky (and screens!) as we watched the 2026 Artemis return to the Moon launch. Just in time for Spring Takeoff starting April 6, 2025 to inspire the next generation of explorers, engineers, and dreamers.

Next stop: the Moon. Then?

IFR approaches utilize the ILS (instrument landing system). The ILS uses radio signals from the ground to create two "electronic beams". 1st Lieutenant Washington (12yrs) demonstrates "flying the needles" the localizer and glideslope, keeping them centered on the instrument display all the way down to the runway.🛬Aerospace Awareness Inc cadets learn to transform the act of flying in bad weather into a disciplined, precise, and safe procedure.

🚀 Exciting Times Ahead! Aerospace Awareness Cadets Gear Up for 2nd Summer Camp! 🌟

Our incredible Aerospace Awareness cadets and trainees are back in action, preparing for their 2nd camp of the summer🔥 From hands-on training to teamwork challenges, these future aerospace professionals are pushing their limits and soaring to new heights.

Their hard work, discipline, and passion shine through every lesson. We’re so proud of their commitment to embodying the core values of Aerospace Awareness✅ Integrity✅ Dedication ✅Excellence

The sky is not the limit—it’s just the beginning! ✈️ Keep aiming high, cadets!

We are thrilled and deeply grateful to the Arby's Foundation for their generous $20,000 grant in support of our mission to inspire the next generation of aerospace leaders! This incredible contribution will help us expand our efforts in the Atlanta area by providing STEM education, hands-on learning opportunities, and fuel young minds with a passion for aviation and space exploration.

At Aerospace Awareness, we believe that every child deserves the chance to reach for the stars—and thanks to partners like the Arby's Foundation, we’re one step closer to making that a reality.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for investing in the future of aerospace and empowering students to dream big!

Aerospace Awareness cadets as early as 9 years old take to the skies (virtually for now!) to practice steep turns (30° or more)—a key skill for any future pilot! �💫 Steep turns aren’t just about banking the wings they’re a foundational exercise that helps cadets develop:
✔ **Coordination** – Balancing aileron, rudder, and elevator for smooth, controlled turns.
✔ **Situational Awareness** – Managing altitude, airspeed, and heading while in a bank.
✔ **Confidence in Flight Controls** – Understanding how an aircraft responds under different conditions. Every great pilot started with the basics, and we’re so proud of our young aviators for taking on the challenge! The sky’s not the limit—it’s just the beginning. 🌍✈️

When an airplane stalls during flight, the wings are not producing enough lift to keep the aircraft flying through the air, causing it to fall.

Stalls are one of the leading causes of fatal aviation accidents around the world. Most stalls are experienced shortly after take-off or when descending to land. Getting caught in a stall can be extremely stressful, even for the most experienced pilots. Aerospace Awareness cadets understand the basics of stall recovery, the types of stalls and situations where a stall is likely to occur. These are an important part of stall prevention and successful stall recovery. Have a great aerospace day! ✈️ 🚀
