Double Victory Flight Program ™

A scholarship and mentorship program for high school students designed to remove financial and access barriers to flight training by providing funding, mentorship, and individualized pathways to FAA-approved flight schools nationwide, inspired by the historic training grounds of the Tuskegee Airmen.

​

On 19 July 1941, the first class of “Tuskegee Airmen” began pre-flight training at Moton Field near Tuskegee, Alabama. Seventy-five years later, on 9 July 2016, the third Legacy Flight Academy character development and flight training program will begin at this very same location to provide an opportunity for up to 20 youth to continue this LEGACY as the next generation of Tuskegee Airmen.

​

Now branded as the “Double Victory Flight Program ™,” it is a scholarship and mentorship program for high school students designed to remove financial and access barriers to flight training by providing funding, mentorship, and individualized pathways to FAA-approved flight schools nationwide, inspired by the historic training grounds of the Tuskegee Airmen.  

 

DVFP seeks to inspire minority youth towards a career in aviation and presents military service opportunities, following in the legacy of the pioneering Tuskegee Airmen.
