Aerospace Education
MNWG is well known across the nation for its Aerospace Education program, and more specifically for its Flight Academy in Mankato, Minnesota. Every year, cadets from Minnesota, and sometimes places as far away as California come to the Academy. The Academy offers powered instruction in Cessna 172s, Cessna 182s and non-powered Blanik gliders. The goal of the Academy is to provide cadets with enough training to potentially complete their first solo flight while at the Academy.
Cadet Programs
Many of the Squadrons in MNWG have cadets in them (as either a composite Squadron or a Cadet Squadron). Minnesota's encampment is held every year at Camp Ripley.
