Young Aviators Lab
A hands-on aviation lab for young aviators ready to think like pilots
What Is Young Aviators Lab?
Young Aviators Lab is an immersive aviation experience where kids step into the role of real pilots. Designed for kids curious about aviation and eager to think, decide, and problem-solve. Aviators make decisions, and work through real-world flying scenarios using hands-on challenges inspired by how pilots actually think.

Event Details
Meet the Instructor
Young Aviators Lab is led by Gheorghe Ciobanu, a professional Airline Transport Pilot with experience in business jet and international flight operations. Gheorghe brings real-world aviation decision-making into an environment designed specifically for curious young minds.
His goal is not to lecture, but to give aviators the opportunity to think, decide, and problem-solve the way pilots do—building confidence and judgment through experience.
