Despite having received a wealth of prestigious honors including the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum Trophy, and enshrinement in National Aviation Hall of Fame, Bob Hoover’s most significant contribution to the aviation community was the importance he placed on serving as an example and mentor to future aviators.
In partnership with Embry Riddle Aeronautical University and Citation Jet Pilots Association, the Bob Hoover Legacy Foundation presents the annual Bob Hoover Presidential Scholarship to ERAU students pursuing careers in the aviation industry.
At AirVenture 2019, Aero-News Editor-In-Chief and Executive Director of the Bob Hoover Legacy Foundation, Jim Campbell, talked with CJP’S Chief Operating Officer, Cheryl Hardy, to hear more about CJP’s role in the award and it’s importance to the students that receive it.
