EAA Chapter 501 Young Eagles Rally Oct. 29

Sunday, October 29, 2023 @ 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Free airplane rides for kids 8 - 17 years of age.

EAA Chapter 501 tries to schedule four Young Eagles events a year. This year we hit three out of four, with one rained out. We're trying again on Sunday, Oct. 29th.

Two Links:

https://eaa501.org, where you'll find weather-related go/no go info, and

https://youngeaglesday.org/?

...where you can see the calendar of YE events and sign up ahead of time.

The pilots who participate in the Young Eagles program are local members of EAA who are volunteering their time and aircraft to make your flight possible. Each Young Eagles pilot is certificated with the Federal Aviation Administration or Transport Canada. Flights are conducted according to federal regulations and no aerobatic maneuvers will be performed.

Peflight and flight time amount to about 30 minutes combined. Flights typically take a northerly circuit from the airport to the Wanaque and Monksville reservoirs and back.

Btw we just announced it and already have 100 kids registered but registration is still open.
