OUR AVIATION CLUB
Our Club
Our club members share a love of aviation and strive to share the joys of flying through education programs and scholarships in cooperation with the LaPorte Municipal Airport and local schools. The La Porte Aero Club was organized in 1976 and now has a clubhouse located on the grounds of the LaPorte Municipal Airport (KPPO). The clubhouse was built in 1991 by club members.

Our History
LaPorte Aero Club holds an annual pancake breakfast which was cancelled this year due to the Covid-19. We are raffling a Cessna 172 airplane to be able to continue our support of Aviation scholarships and youth education through the LaPorte Airport Aviation Summer Camp. The club also supports other activities included support of the "Sentimental Journey, B-17" historical tour visit in August 2020. The club members are always willing to support the LaPorte Airport (PPO) in all their activities. See our Scairport Holloween event at LaPorteairport.com or on Facebook.
Our Mission
We are promoting general aviation and do so by providing Aviation scholarships and monetary donations to the LaPorte Municipal Airport Aviation Camp each year. We only have one fundraising activity per year and that is a fly in/drive in pancake breakfast in August (canceled for 2020 & 2021). With these proceeds we will continue funding the Aviation Camp, provide the scholarships, and sustain the clubhouse. Usually we serve as many as 1200 breakfasts each year. The setup and execution of this event has been honed over the 40+ years we have been in existence and is a relatively painless task occupying one weekend.
