The mission of the Latino Pilots Association is two-fold:

  • To expose young Latinos to the world of aviation and empower them with the information, resources and inspiration to pursue their dreams to fly — recreationally or as a career.

  • To connect Latino pilots through online and offline forums, events and gatherings and serve their interests and needs to promote the popularity of flight.

Our aim is:

  • To educate Latino middle and high school students about the vast opportunities in the aviation field and provide them with a range of education options.

  • To encourage Latinos to become recreational or professional pilots and develop scholarships for flight training and college education.

  • To stimulate and encourage broader job opportunities for underprivileged Latino youth interested in aviation.

  • To develop educational outreach programs to Hispanic communities across the United States.

  • To increase the number of Latinos who become pilots.

Latinos are the nation's largest minority group and the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population.
