Flying Squirrels Inc

The Flying Squirrels, founded in 1965 as an Explorer Post under the Boy Scouts of America, is dedicated to promoting aviation among youth aged 14 to 18 by providing economical opportunities to learn to fly. Sponsored by the Flight Training Centers at Kokomo and Sheridan airports and EAA Chapter 235, the organization organizes regular ground school meetings and a summer flight school program that offers hands-on flight instruction.

Participants engage in ground instruction, guest presentations, and various aviation-related activities throughout the year, culminating in a summer program featuring flight practice in different aircraft. The Flying Squirrels also encourage community involvement by volunteering at air shows and other aviation events, while offering continued flight instruction through affiliated training centers at reduced rates.
