Team Awards
These are made to organisations to help support established schemes whereby
selection and administration are undertaken at national level by the organisation
themselves, or to provide support to relevant team-based developmental projects.
British Gliding Association, represented by Pete Stratten
40 Awards of up to £150 given to young individuals (15-17 years old), at pre-solo
level, for the payment of flying fees at a BGA-nominated flying club.
Headstart, represented by David Ozhill
Part of the Royal Academy of Engineering’s BEST programme to encourage
Engineering development of young people, Headstart offers Year 12/S5 students the
opportunity to spend one week in an Engineering or Science department at a UK
University to help them make future degree choices and develop their skills. The aim
of the Scholarship is to make relatively small awards to students who cannot
otherwise readily afford the travel costs associated with the scheme.
Royal Aero Club, represented by Frederick Marsh
Sponsorship of four Flight Simulation Bursaries to applicants who are flight simulator
pilots, aged between 16-21 years, and wish to obtain practical experience of flying or
of an air sport.
The Air League, represented by Edward Cox

FutureFlight is a competition devised by Dr Simon Newman and his team for school
children to design green airliners of the future using a web based design system,
raising awareness of both Aerospace Engineering and Sustainability to young people
in the 21st Century. The award will contribute towards cost of display material and
Exhibition stand for use in public areas.
