Signature Aviation at Opa-locka Airport
15001 NW 42nd Ave, Opa Locka, FL 33054
ONLINE REGISTRATION is now open for pilots, volunteers, and participants.
Our program gives children, especially those fighting serious illness, an opportunity for a free airplane ride. Recognizing that care givers are often "forgotten angels" in such situations, special emphasis is given to include the entire family. In addition, we will have gratis entertainment and refreshments available. Our goal is simple — to share the thrill of flying with children and their families and to give them relief from their daily struggles.
