STUDENTS! Come have a blast during AirVenture. Register now for your seat in a class (or two, or three, or four) in the STEM lab. Fly the Redbird Jay Velocity simulator during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh and learn STEM! We are integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into aviation-themed classes while incorporating flight simulators into the lessons. The Redbird STEM Lab will highlight how impactful, hands-on training makes for a fun learning environment.

The Redbird STEM Lab will be located in the Redbird tent, exhibit space 304, and "class" will be in session Monday, July 23 through Saturday, July 28 from 9:00 am to 2:20 pm for 6th graders and up. Classes are free to all AirVenture attendees and students will receive a Redbird Flight drawstring backpack. Come and learn as often as you'd like!
