New groups for young pilots aim to invigorate aviation industry.
While the U.S. population has been on a steady and strong increase for decades, the pilot population has slowly been declining as the large number of amazing aviators that came out of the World War II and the Vietnam War are aging. But with the emergence of new young pilot groups there is hope for a new generation of avid aviators.
One organization that is working to grow the pilot population is Millennial Wings in Florida. As a chapter of the Florida Aero Club, Millennial Wings includes aviators in the age range of 18 to 25.
