Air Scouts are a part of the Scout movement with a particular emphasis on aviation-themed programmes and/or flying-based activities. Air Scouts follow the same basic programme as other Scouts, but they devote certain amounts of time focused on their air activities.

Air Scouts often wear a slightly different uniform from the rest of the Scouting movement and/or may have additional badges/insignia.

Most air activities are ground-based like focusing on aviation-related activities, modelling aeroplanes, aircraft knowledge, and flight techniques. Depending on the age group, country and Scout group, the activities can also include parachuting or flights in light aircraft, helicopters, gliders or hot air balloons.
