PASCO Scholarship for members

Available 4 Times Per Year

PASCO Private Pilot (Glider) Exam Support Program

One of the purposes of the Pacific Soaring Council is to stimulate youth to enter the great sport of soaring. A long time ago a Scholarship Fund was established for this purpose.

In the recent past we have not been utilizing the assets in this scholarship fund for mentioned purpose. Only 2 new pilots filed an application in the past 4 years.

The rules for an application are simple:

  1. The new pilot must be a member of Pacific Soaring Council Inc. (PASCO).
  2. The standard contribution is US $250 per applicant. This should cover the examination fee.
  3. The new pilot should be attending school for more then 20 hours per week at the time of the examination (age is NOT a factor).
  4. The request should be endorsed by the examiner.
  5. The new pilot is obliged to write up his experience of obtaining a glider license for publication in the next West Wind.
  6. The new pilot should have passed the final examination not more then 2 months ago at the time of the request.

A maximum of 4 scholarships total are available per calendar year on a first come first serve basis to PASCO members.

If you are a student pilot, talk to your instructor or examiner about this opportunity! If you are an instructor or an examiner, please bring forward your candidates! If you would like to make a contribution to the scholarship fund, please contact the treasurer.
