About US

Formed in 2015, The Bede Family Foundation was created for teaching students about building kit aircraft and experimental aviation. We hope to inspire the next generation of aviation’s certified mechanics and aeronautical engineers.

Located in a new facility in Akron, Ohio, the Foundation is well-situated to provide local organizations with the guidance and technical capabilities to support their program needs.
