Comprised of over 50,000 alumni, Alpha Eta Rho seeks to instill in the public mind a confidence in aviation and its safety. AHP strives to promote contact between the students of aviation and those engaged in the profession, while constantly improving aviation education and research in the field.

Alpha Eta Rho is a non-profit volunteer organization working to enhance the quality of life of aviation students and strengthen the bonds that exist within the aviation community. The fraternal bond cultivated by Alpha Eta Rho fosters a professional and social atmosphere that not only enhances the collegiate aviation experience, but also builds friendships and networking that will last a lifetime.

"We all love planes and anything related to flying. We are small, but do what we can to help the campus and community and have fun. One event we have done was Stem in the Park at the Perry Field House for kids. Having fun with aviation is our main focus. We all want to learn more and have fun. So far, we have toured the USAF Museum in Dayton and met up with OSU’s AHP Chapter. AHP also does other events including Trapped Toledo or having dinner/game nights. Plans for the future include touring Toledo’s airport, more museum trips, meeting up with other chapters, and more."
