Peachtree Corners resident Maria Hernandez was awarded a $10,000 opportunity for flight training by the Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 690 of Lawrenceville and the Ray Aviation Scholarship program.
Hernandez will be training at Aero Ventures Flying Club, based at Gwinnett County Airport in Lawrenceville. The scholarship was created to support a flight student through both written and practical segments of flight training that are part of successful FAA pilot certification.
