Young Eagles Coordinators
 
The Young Eagles Program was launched at Oskhosh 1992 and has set a goal of providing 1 million young people around the world ages 8 through 17 with a free introductory airplane ride. These rides are provided through the generosity of volunteer EAA pilots and members of other authorized aviation organizations.
If you are interested in a local Young Eagle flight, please send us an e-mail with your name, age, phone number and address so that one of the local Young Eagle Directors can provide you with additional information on how to arrange a FREE flight.
