Utah State University has been selected to participate in the 2023 Top Hawk program. Top Hawk is leading the way for aviation programs to continue training the next generation of pilots.

Select universities and Cessna Pilot Centers will participate in Top Hawk to promote general aviation and connect future pilots to higher education. This program leases a factory new , custom branded Cessna Skyhawk to use for the duration of the program to promote aviation at air shows, aviation contests, and recruiting events. At the end of the program, USU will have the option to purchase the aircraft.
