About Us
Our Values
At AeroPrinceton, we believe learning doesn't stop in the classroom. We give students the opportunity to apply engineering knowledge directly to aviation—gaining hands-on experience in riveting, wiring, metalwork, and more. Every skill learned contributes to something extraordinary: building fully functional, FAA-approved airplanes.
We're also committed to sharing this vision beyond Princeton, supporting other colleges in launching their own airplane-building clubs and expanding the reach of student-driven aviation.
Why AeroPrinceton?
We are the only student-run club in the world building full-scale, piloted aircraft. Our mission is simple yet bold: teach technical skills, foster innovation, and make aviation history—one airplane at a time.
Our Goals
- •Design and build an entirely original student-designed aircraft.
- •Launch the world's first transcontinental collegiate air race with student-built airplanes.
- •Support students in earning their Private Pilot License (PPL).
- •Count build hours toward an Aircraft & Powerplant (A&P) Mechanic License.
