For more than 30 years, Sooner Flight Academy has worked to inspire Oklahoma’s next generation to become leaders in the aviation industry and in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
We provide a memorable learning experience for students K-12 by encouraging inquiry and exploration. Our hands-on activities are designed to help kids understand more about the world around them through exciting discoveries using math, science and aviation principles.
