CAP's Aerospace Education program aims to educate not only cadets and senior members, but also our communities by offering STEM resources to educators.
AE for Cadets
New cadets progress through the seven Aerospace Dimensions modules, and experienced cadets study Aerospace history using the book Aerospace: The Journey of Flight. Many aerospace related activities and opportunities are also open to cadets.
Aerospace Dimensions Modules
Module 1: Introduction to Flight
Module 2: Aircraft Systems and Airports
Module 3: Air Environment
Module 4: Rockets
Module 5: Space Environment
Module 6: Spacecraft
Module 7: Cyber Security
Aerospace: The Journey of Flight
Orientation Flights
Orientation flights follow a curriculum that complements and expands upon the first three Aerospace Dimensions modules, giving cadets the opportunity to apply their knowledge to real flight situations. Orientation flights are not simply "airplane rides". Cadets are able to actually fly the airplane under the supervision of an experienced pilot.
