Applicants must be current NeBAA Regular Members holding a valid US pilot certificate with Multi-Engine Land Commercial Instrument Rating, at least 500 total flight hours, and an FAA Class II Medical; US citizenship is required.

How to apply

  1. Read the full requirements on Nebraska Business Aviation Association (NeBAA)'s official page, including the membership requirement. Applying is free.
  2. Line up the slow pieces early: recommendation letters, transcripts, and any medical or student pilot certificate the provider asks for.
  3. Write the essay with numbers, not passion: name your certificate goal, your school, your hours so far, and exactly what this award covers. Build your plan so every figure in the essay is real.
