First Solo Complete!

Congratulations to Jared Lowell on his first solo flight!

Every pilot remembers the day they first took to the skies alone, and we're excited to celebrate this milestone with Jared. As he serves at SOAR, he's gaining the hands-on experience and training that will prepare him for a lifetime of ministry through missionary aviation.

Way to go, Jared! Please continue to pray for him as he grows in skill, confidence, and readiness.

Who's Heading to Oshkosh?!

AirVenture is almost here, and we're excited to be part of another incredible week celebrating aviation and sharing the mission of SOAR! If you'll be at EAA AirVenture, stop by the IAMA Tent, Lot 20. We'd love to meet you, answer your questions, and share how mission aviation is bringing the Gospel to some of the most remote places in the world.

Whether you're a pilot, mechanic, student, or simply love serving there's a place for you.

Flight instruction is designed with the mission field in mind. Students are trained not only to fly, but to operate in challenging environments where aviation is a lifeline for reaching remote communities.

Through intentional training and mentorship, they are growing in both skill and readiness to serve wherever God leads. Each flight is part of a greater purpose.

We’re grateful to play a role in preparing missionary aviators for what lies ahead.

At SOAR, our maintenance program is about more than turning wrenches. It is about preparing missionaries to serve where aviation is essential.

Through hands-on training, our candidates gain real-world experience working on aircraft while earning their A&P certification. These skills are critical for keeping mission planes safe, reliable, and ready to reach remote communities with the Gospel.

From the hangar to the mission field, every bolt tightened and every inspection completed plays a part in advancing the work.
