The logo for the Aviation Academy features a vintage-style airplane flying at a slight upward angle within a circular design. The background includes soft illustrations of clouds and trees, representing flight and the Pacific Northwest. The words "Aviation Academy" are written in bold, white letters around the circle's edge, framing the plane. The overall color scheme is muted, using shades of blue, green, and cream to give it a professional yet approachable feel.
