Scholarship Description: Helicopter Foundation International has long recognized the need for
qualified commercial helicopter pilots and helicopter maintenance technicians.
Over the last several years, the shortage has become very real. Many of our
experienced pilots and maintenance technicians are nearing retirement age. Conflicts
have pulled experienced personnel from our ranks at a time when the helicopter
industry is enjoying growth – due in part to the wider recognition of the
tremendous versatility of this phenomenal and versatile machine. Helicopter
Foundation International (HFI) is pleased to announce the 2013 Bill Sanderson
Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT) Scholarship Award Program. This program
