EagleFlight Aviation Ministries
Aviation plays a vital role in the ministry of spreading the Gospel of Christ
all over the world.  While the need for pilots increases, pilots who have the
proper training, are qualified and are willing to go are getting harder to find.
 This is why EagleFlight Aviation
is here.

EagleFlight Aviation was formed as a means to provide for the need of
aviation ministries.  We are dedicated to those who serve the Lord with their
passion of aviation.  Whether in a far off jungle flying a Cessna 180 or here
in the United States serving God as pilot of a Cessna Citation, both
positions are places of honor for those who dedicate every day to this high
service.  EagleFlight Aviation Ministries uses aviation to further Gods
kingdom in three individual ways:
Missionary Pilot Training
While many people think of a missionary pilot as one who flies in wonderful
exotic locations such as South America or the Asia, a true missionary pilot
is one who knows that God has called him to use a passion of aviation for
whatever his calling may be.  This calling may bring them into foreign
jungles but also may keep the pilot here in the United States.  EagleFlight
Aviation Ministries is dedicated to the training of missionary pilots for
wherever God has called them to fly.

The EagleFlight Missions Training Program is designed to take a zero time
pilot called into the ministry of aviation up through all the required FAA
ratings and 400 hours of flight time.  In this flight time, pilots will obtain
Single and Multi-engine Commercial Pilot Certificates with Instrument
Ratings as well as High Performance and Complex endorsements at little to
no cost to the pilots.  God has not called a people to do His works without
equipping them first.  EagleFlight is dedicated to equipping pilots to do
Gods work.

The vision of EagleFlight Aviation is not only to provide this flight training
program to students from the United States but also to indigenous people
of the world.  The International Student Training Program is focused on
bringing select pilot trainees from places like the Philippine and South
American tribes to train them.  These indigenous people are already
accustomed to the area and make excellent missionary pilots.  The desire is
to bring them here, train them and send them to fly in their homeland with
an airplane to fly.

In order to fulfill this vision, EagleFlight Aviation Ministries is looking to build
a flight training compound just south of Kansas City.  This compound will
include housing for all students participating in the training program.  Living
spaces as well as a cafeteria will serve the students and families while
attending.  This land will also house the runway and hangers used for flight
training as well as a large lake for floatplane training.  
Ministry Transportation Program
As ministry needs grow around the United States, the need for ministry to
be able to travel efficiently will grow as well.  As part of the missionary pilot
training process, our pilots will build real world cross country flight
experience providing transportation to these traveling ministers.  This will
benefit both the ministry as well as the pilots.  Ministry will be able to travel
when they need to where they need to at a minimum cost, usually just the
cost of fuel.  

Pilots participating in the transportation ministry will have a minimum of an
instrument rating and 150 hours of flight time.  Pilots with less than 250
hours of flight time and have not passed their commercial checkride will be
accompanied by an instructor, making a two pilot crew.  This will help build
confidence and experience for the less experienced pilot.  

Upon graduating from EagleFlights Pilot Training Program, pilots will have
the opportunity to stay on with EagleFlight and provide instruction and
transportation needs.  
Youth Aviation Programs
The future of all aviation, especially missions aviation, is dependant on
getting kids interested in aviation and developing in them an understanding
of just what it takes to be a pilot.  Here at EagleFlight Aviation Ministries we
focus on the youth aviation through several programs listed below.
