RISE INSIDE Flight Program Moving to New Classrooms R-MA’s Flight Program remains one of the premier aviation programs in the country. Interest in the flight program has grown exponentially amongst R-MA students, especially considering the increase in the study body population over the past year. Overall, R-MA students completed an impressive total of 461 flight hours and an additional 68 hours on the flight simulator.

This tremendous participation has prompted a shift in the flight program’s residence on campus. Beginning next year, the flight program will be housed in Stan Fulton Hall, spanning across three classrooms. This new expansion will allow the manned and unmanned flight programs to further collaborate and create new, progressive opportunities for students to take full advantage of.
The flight program will also benefit from the new Aviation Pre-Professional Pathway, a set of courses that will allow students to focus their studies on taking to the skies. Next year, six students will participate in this new curriculum that will promote career opportunities that coincide well with the courses and realworld experience students experience while at R-MA.
