How Pre-Flight Camp Helps Girls Build Confidence, Find Their Voice, and Dream Bigger in Aviation
What happens when a young girl steps into an airplane for the first time and realizes she truly belongs there? In this heartfelt episode, Adam talks with Morgan and Brittany from Pre-Flight Camp about how one week can spark confidence, courage, and a whole new view of what is possible. They share their own paths in aviation, the joy of mentoring girls ages 11 to 14, and the powerful moments when campers go from shy observers to bold future pilots and leaders. You will also hear why strong female role models matter, how the camp prepares girls for discovery flights, and what it really takes to keep this mission growing through volunteers, donations, and community support.
