Southern Maryland Seaplanes is now fully supporting the
Ready 9 Aviation Academy
We are excited to announce that we have transitioned our flight operations into the Ready 9 Aviation Academy, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Ready 9's mission is to promote aviation as a STEM career field for youth and adults. Our long-term goal is to offer hands-on aviation exposure to all of the high school aged students in St. Mary's County!
Ready 9 Aviation Academy will continue to offer tailwheel training and seaplane training as we start to grow other programs. Stay tuned for a link to the new website. All links here for training requests, gift certificates, and donations are redirected to Ready 9 Aviation Academy.
We are shutting down the sightseeing program, but will still offer hands-on discovery flights in the seaplane or the smaller Cessna taildragger. Come learn a bit about aviation while supporting the nonprofit programs!
