Opening Knight

Starting your first year at UCF? Looking for a way to get involved, meet new people, and find your place on campus?

Come meet Pegasus Pilots at Opening Knight 2026! Pegasus Pilots is UCF’s community for students who share an interest in aviation. Whether you’ve dreamed about becoming a pilot your entire life, are interested in an aviation or aerospace career, already have flight experience, or just think airplanes are cool, there’s a place for you here.

Stop by our table to meet our officers and members, learn about the club, and see what we have planned for the year. We’ll tell you about upcoming aviation events, guest speakers, airport and industry opportunities, social events, flight-related activities, and ways to connect with other students who share your interests. You do not need to be a pilot, an aerospace engineering major, or know anything about flying to join.

Pegasus Pilots welcomes students from every major and experience level. If aviation interests you, come say hi. Your first few weeks at UCF are the perfect time to try something new, make friends, and get involved. Opening Knight is your chance to meet us in person and find out if Pegasus Pilots could become part of your UCF experience.
