San Carlos Flight Center is a proud supporter and flight training provider for the Upwind Foundation and the Upwind Summer Scholarship Program. Upwind was founded by pilots who wanted a way to promote piloting and general aviation, cultivate interest in aviation as a career, and to address the national pilot shortage. Each year, high school students are given the opportunity to become certificated private pilots during the summer between their junior and senior year. San Carlos Flight Center is the program’s training provider, and offers planes, instructors, and facilities to Upwind’s students.
