From Aspiring Pilots to Aviation Whizzes: Integrating ASA Support with Navispire Learning

Navispire isn’t just transforming STEM education—it’s laying the groundwork for the next generation of aviators. By integrating real-world aviation tools from ASA (Aviation Supplies & Academics) into classroom kits, Navispire brings professional-grade pilot training equipment into the hands of high school students. With access to flight plotters, E6B calculators, kneeboards, and headsets, students gain a hands-on preview of what it’s like to pursue a career in aviation. 

This piece explores how Navispire and ASA’s collaboration empowers schools to create meaningful aviation pathways and how students benefit from exposure to authentic pilot training resources. 

The aviation industry demands precision, discipline, and technical expertise. ASA’s education resources are the gold standard for flight students nationwide, and by incorporating them into the Navispire online store, students: 

• Learn how to read and create navigation charts 

• Use E6B flight computers to perform real aviation calculations 

• Practice headset communication protocols 

• Experience what pilot training looks and feels like 

These experiences make aviation concepts tangible and exciting. They help students connect classroom lessons to real pilot skills—making STEM more relevant and aspirational. 

In addition to hands-on tools, Navispire offers discounted access to ASA Prepware, a digital test preparation platform trusted by pilot schools and flight instructors. Students can: 

• Take FAA-style practice exams 

• Track learning progress 

• Build confidence for future certification exams 

This access gives learners a powerful edge—whether they’re pursuing aviation careers or simply exploring their interests. For educators, Prepware provides measurable outcomes and easy integration into aviation-themed lesson plans. 

Through its ASA-equipped kits and digital learning tools, Navispire plays a vital role in creating aviation pipelines within schools. Teachers can: 

• Launch after-school aviation clubs 

• Embed pilot training modules into science and math lessons 

• Connect with local aviation professionals for guest lectures 

Schools can even host aviation STEM nights or cross-discipline challenges (e.g., build a flight plan using an E6B and then simulate it on a computer). These types of experiences not only boost engagement—they inspire real career pathways. 

One of Navispire’s greatest strengths is accessibility. The products Navispire offers are affordable, classroom-ready, and scalable. Schools don’t need a full flight lab or simulator to introduce aviation. A single Navispire STEM kit or ASA tools can unlock opportunities. 

By offering optional add-ons as well as all-in-one kits, Navispire ensures that aviation learning is possible for schools of all sizes and budgets. 

Navispire’s partnership with ASA delivers more than tools—it delivers opportunity. By providing real aviation resources in an educational setting, Navispire empowers teachers to inspire future pilots, engineers, and aerospace innovators. From curious beginners to aviation-bound students, these tools spark imaginations and build skills that truly take flight. 

With Navispire and ASA, students don’t just learn about aviation—they live it.
