Welcome to the MissionAero Pipeline
We seek to transform lives, inspire careers and set students on a path of learning in the aerospace industry.
The MissionAero Pipeline
Aviation is fun, and the need for aviators is great! The MissionAero Pipeline coordinates strategic partnerships with STARBASE and Wings As Eagles Mission Air Service (WAE) to allow students various skills to expand their future opportunities.
Students will receive professional training across four areas: Aviation, Character, Career and Missions.
