About AVIATOL
An introduction to our activities at AVIATOL

The future for which AVIATOL aims
Our greatest goal at AVIATOL is to change the way that people learn.
We think that the style of learning provided in the modern school classroom leaves something to be desired. Education works best when we seek out knowledge because we have something which we would like to achieve
Plenty of people dreamed of launching rockets and airplanes when they were children.
Our current foremost goal is to develop and produce engines which can be mounted in small-scale rockets used in Japan for educational purposes.
In order to procure the funding necessary for this, we are currently focused on producing artistic objects and developing educational resources.
A future where studying is fun, because we study for a purpose.
If we can achieve this, a new world would dawn. AVIATOL strives to make this reality
