Young Pilots is an online community built for young people who share a passion for aviation. Whether you are just discovering a love of flight or already dreaming of a career in the skies, this is your space to connect, learn, and grow alongside others who feel the same way.

Getting started is easy. When you join, you gain access to the Hangar — a dedicated chat space where members come together to talk aviation, share stories, and make new friends from around the world. Stay up to date with the latest aviation news and events, all gathered in one place and updated regularly so you never miss what is happening in the world of flight.

The Knowledge Hub gives you access to a growing collection of aviation content; videos, fact sheets, handouts, and every new member can get started with a free introduction to flying course — a great first step for anyone curious about how aircraft work and what it takes to become a pilot.

Members who want to go further can explore YPI Plus for a richer experience.. Twice a month, join live-streamed sessions featuring interviews with real professionals from across the aviation industry — airline pilots, military pilots, aeronautical engineers, air traffic controllers and more — sharing their journeys and insights directly with the community. These are genuine conversations with people doing the jobs many members aspire to one day hold and are genuinely fascinating.

Twice monthly drop-in sessions give members a relaxed, moderated space to hang out with friends and fellow aviation enthusiasts. Members of the Young Pilots team are always present to keep things safe, welcoming, and fun for everyone, and these sessions may also be live aviation themed lessons.
The Career Hub is a dedicated resource for members starting to think seriously about their future in aviation, offering guidance and information to help navigate the many paths the industry has to offer.

Each month brings new challenges and competitions designed to test your knowledge, spark creativity, and reward participation. Every interaction in the community helps you earn points, and as your points grow, you climb the community leaderboard — working your way up through the ranks toward becoming an ‘aviation legend’.

Young Pilots also offers online courses designed to help members build real aviation knowledge at their own pace. From introductory lessons for those just starting out, to courses that support students working toward their Private Pilot Licence, the learning pathways are structured to grow with you. Whether you are studying for the first time or looking to reinforce what you already know, the courses provide a solid foundation for anyone serious about taking their aviation journey further.

Young Pilots is a safe, friendly, and fully moderated environment. Every corner of the community is designed with young people in mind, so members and their families can feel confident that this is a positive place to spend time and learn.
