AVCAT is delighted to announce the R.W.Hill Aviation Scholarship for 2027. The Hill Family is partnering with AVCAT to assist children and grandchildren of Australian Veterans towards the cost of gaining their Commercial Pilot’s Licence. The Hill family’s proud tradition of service began with Richard William Hill, who served in the Australian Army before transferring to the Royal Australian Air Force as a pilot during the Second World War. His commitment to service established a lasting legacy, inspiring several of his sons and grandchildren to serve in the Australian Defence Force. Reflecting the family’s passion for aviation, one of his sons, three grandsons and two great-grandsons have also earned a CASA Private Pilot Licence or higher.
AVCAT welcomes the Hill Family as one of our valued sponsors.
