About Us
Flight Club 502 is a non-profit 501 (c)(3), based out of Bowman Field (KLOU), Louisville, KY and is dedicated to teaching teens about leadership and success through realistic goal setting in aviation and through Next Gen/STEM education.
The organization was established in 2015 by a small group of high schooler and middle schoolers, alongside Laura Benson Jones, who wanted to inspire other students to become successful in life while using and incorporating aviation and the STEM subjects as a springboard for that success. Flight Club 502 is owned and operated by the youth members with professional adult supervision.

LEADERSHIP & DECISION MAKING
We use aviation to help students learn how they can apply their newfound skills in everyday life. These include things like flight planning (life planning), emergency procedures (facing emergencies in life) and situation awareness that will come into play on the ground as well when they’re flying around!
