Hugh T. Flanagan is a Member of the Young Pilots USA Executive Board, a Member of Chapter 1 in Oxford, CT, and Director of Collegiate Outreach, in which capacity he handles new programming that will assist Members in their post-secondary aviation education goals. He is from Middlebury, CT and is currently attending Saint Francis University in Loretto, PA as a rising senior, where he is studying General Engineering with an Aviation concentration.

​

Through the Aviation concentration, he has been able to obtain his Private Pilot's License with ASEL and Instrument ratings and logged over 100 hours, primarily in the Diamond DA40NG and Piper PA-28. He currently expects to complete his commercial license by the time of his graduation in 2024.

Hugh has always had a keen interest in aviation, stemming from an early fascination with the history and facts behind airplanes and their development over the years. He is very excited to be part of the Executive Board for Young Pilots USA and hopes to help present opportunities to those interested in aviation just like he was, and is, and encourage young people all over America to follow their passion for flight.
