Scholarship Program

Helping local graduates launch aviation careers

Investing in the next generation of aviators

The Brookings Flying Club (BFC) provides financial scholarships to local graduates to enter a field of study related to an occupation in the aviation industry. The funds are raised during our annual Airport Day event by flying members of the public, who donate to the Scholarship Fund.

The specific purpose of this fund is to:

Provide local graduates financial support to enter an aviation field of study.
Provide incentive for students to enter a career in the aviation industry, which is in need of qualified employees in most branches of that industry.

For students to access a scholarship grant, they can either submit an application directly on this page or apply through the Brookings/Harbor Scholarship Foundation.

The BFC welcomes help from any source to interest local graduates in choosing a career in aviation, and to accept a BFC scholarship to start them on a journey into one of the most satisfying lifetime activities.
