Our second “Fly Day” event has been completed. We were honored to have Lieutenant Colonel Hiram Mann present for our event. He is an inspiring individual who was able to show participants that a career in aviation is possible and within their reach. 12 participants were taken from the Orlando Science Center down to Orlando Executive Airport to embark on their discovery flight. You can read more about the event in this article from Newsmark PR.
Mike McKenzie (CEO)
Mike McKenzie, a Navy veteran and Embry-Riddle alumnus, founded Vision of Flight in 2011 to empower our nation's youth and introduce them to aviation and other STEM careers. Since before Mike was 12 years old, he had always wanted to fly. Today, he aims to spark that same passion for aviation into the next generation as he manages and organizes all of the Vision of Flight events. He hopes to teach the youth that they have the opportunity for greatness and that the skies are for everybody.
