How It Started
First Flight began with a simple idea: learning is more fun when it takes off. We saw the potential of drones not just as tools for professionals, but as a way for young people to engage with science, math, and technology in a real-world, interactive way. What started as a passion project has grown into a movement to bring drones into classrooms, camps, and community programs across the country.
"We're not just teaching kids how to fly drones—we're preparing them for the future. From critical thinking and teamwork to creativity and innovation, the skills developed through drone education help pave pathways to careers in science, technology, and engineering."
