Albert Whitted Flying Club
Introducing kids to the joy of flight
Albert Whitted Flying Club is a teenager-led aviation club at Albert Whitted Airport in St. Petersburg, Florida. Members learn about aviation, serve the airport community, and share time around airplanes.
The Next Generation Takes Flight
Teenagers lead the club. We plan activities, organize experiences, and help shape the future of AWFC. Pilots and the aviation community support us in our endeavors and help make our goals achievable, by donating their time and aircraft.
Members meet to plan events, volunteer, and learn from people who work in aviation. Some of the best days are in the air, with flight instructors who donate their time.
