Summer exchange student program question
I am looking for any information on summer exchange student programs. An Italian pilot friend has a 16 year old son who attends the Aeronautical Institute of Rome.
His son would like to spend the summer in the U.S. to improve his English and possibly work part-time. The work part seems impossible due to his age and visa requirements. It also seems a little late to accomplish this during the current summer, unless someone has some ideas.
Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated for this summer or for the summer of 2004.
Cheers,

There are numerous Student Exchange Programs that are on-going throughout the year in the United States. The key is contacting a Student Exchange Representative (phone number should be available through your son's school) and getting on the list.
Homestead High School in Fort Wayne Indiana has numerous Exchange Students that attend High School here during the school year.
As for something aviation related, the only thing that I can think of is this years EAA Air Venture Air Show in Oshkosh Wisconsin. You might be able to contact the EAA and see if they know of a family that would take him in during the summer so that he could volunteer to work at the Air Show.
