My grandson went the first year that they started their programs. He stayed a week and loved it! The next year he couldn't wait to go again!. The programs that he went to weren't cheap but the experiences that he had, the people he met from other all over the U.S. and beyond and the things he learned were well worth it. They put in a lot of effort, cost, and time to make this beneficial to the kids and to give them a great experience. I realize not everyone can afford it but if your school gets involved or some chance comes up that allows your child or grandchild the opportunity to do any kind of program associated with the Flight Academy, then grab it.

Since no one allowed on base unless you're military. So, will kids/parents even be able to use this or is it only for military kids? Since no one allowed on base unless you’re military.
