Mission
The Avion is the college publication of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida. The magazine has a printed circulation of approximately 1,000, and has a history dating back to Embry-Riddle's early days in Miami, Florida. Although The Avion was previously known as the Flypaper, Jetstream and the Informer, the publication has not strayed far from its roots. Today, the Avion supports a rigorous online presence through its website, mobile application and social media platforms.

The publication is published biweekly during the Fall and Spring semesters, and normally consists of a campus section, industry and technology section, sports section, entertainment section.

Run by students for students, The Avion is staffed primarily by volunteers who find time in their busy schedules to keep the campus updated on local and industry happenings. These individuals have a passion for journalism, photography and design. The Avion takes pride in covering premier events, such as rocket launches, air shows, and events at the Daytona International Speedway. Additionally, the Avion has seized numerous opportunities to interview rock stars, politicians, pilots and astronauts.

During the Fall and Spring semesters, meetings are held on Tuesdays at 7 p.m., in SU 210 on the second floor of the Mori Hosseini Student Union.

The Avion lays out the weekly design on Sundays at 1 p.m., in our office Student Union Room 219.
