The Bill Sattler Memorial Foundation for Aerospace Education (The Sattler Foundation) is a 501 C3 non-profit organization that provides students in Middle Tennessee exposure to aviation and space education and related employment opportunities.
To help students develop thinking skills and problem solving skills while learning about aviation and space. Whether through in-school curriculum or summer camps, students will become creative, innovative critical thinkers through engineering design and hands on experimentation while working closely together solving real-world problems.
Exposing young people to Aviation and Aerospace education is key to what we do. We feel early hands-on exposure to the world of aviation and science is critical to meet the needs of future generations.
Bill Sattler was an astute businessman here in the Nashville TN area and an avid aviation enthusiast. He particularly loved building aircraft and working with the Experimental Aircraft Association’s Young Eagles program. Bill always had a heart for giving students the ability to realize their dreams!
Bill passed away in late 2014, and in his honor the Bill Sattler Memorial Foundation for Aerospace Education was created and is based in Hangar #2 at the Lebanon Municipal Airport.
The Bill Sattler Memorial Foundation for Aerospace Education is honored to announce its first Aviation Scholarship which will be called “The Sattler Foundation Scholarship”.

Hands on model airplane construction helps demonstrate flight characteristics...lift, weight, drag and thrust.
Nothing like experiencing your first flight in a real airplane.
Airborne without an engine? Campers enjoyed a lighter than air experience.
How cold is liquid nitrogen? How is this a fuel source? Let's learn together.
Corporate pilots explain some of the many technology advances in the form of "electronic flight bags and navigation".
A week-long journey of wonder and discovery. Dreams really do come true.
