BAP, in partnership with the FAA, places donated aircraft into high schools across the country that want to add aviation into their curriculum. It has 27 projects in the U.S., plus others in India, the United Kingdom and Nigeria. As a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization, BAP donations are tax deductible.
