8:00 am for Young Eagles
One of our 2006 Young Eagles. This young lady is actually
flying the Balanca Citabria
from the back seat! A
neat experience for both
the "new pilot" and the old
one up front. She was cool,
calm and flew very well for
her first time. A
future airline pilot maybe?
HARRISON FORD
NEW CHAIRMAN FOR YOUNG EAGLES
Harrison Ford, best known as a renowned
actor in more than three dozen films but also an extremely active pilot
and member of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), was
introduced today as the new Chairman of the EAA Young Eagles Program,
which has flown more than 1 million young people since 1992.
The EAA Chapter 1230 wants to promote, any way that is
possible, safe and fun aviation. Please come out to our activities
and witness good old fun. Your family is welcome too!. The
skies of America have always been a symbol of freedom. Let's get
out and use our freedom. Plan to attend our next Young Eagles
Fly-out. Bring your kids, grandkids or
neighborhood kids. They will remember the day of flight
forever. KEEP AMERICA FLYING!!!!!
Young Eagles Flights
Our chapter members and friends have introduced over 2,500 youngsters to aviation by taking them on a first flight. The E.A.A.
member donates the aircraft and all related expenses so the flight is
absolutely free.
We conduct a pre-flight, aviation
information session to help educate the young people about the actual
theory and science of flight.
Fun as well as the importance of safety
is always covered.
We really enjoy this activity! If you would like more information then leave
your e-mail.
A group of young aviators take off with their
E.A.A. pilot David Aronson.
