Would you like to experience the joy of flight? Are you between the ages of 8 and 17?
You can receive a FREE local airplane ride from a volunteer pilot of the Young Eagles Program. The EAA Young Eagles program was launched in 1992 to give interested young people, ages 8 - 17, an opportunity to go flying in a general aviation airplane. These flights are offered FREE of charge. EAA Chapter 461 will conduct flights at the Young Eagles Rally Events on Saturday, September 8th and Saturday, October 13th from 9 am until noon. The flights are taken from the Illinois Aviation Museum hangar at Clow International Airport in Bolingbrook, Illinois. Most Young Eagle flights last 15 – 20 minutes. No advance sign up is needed. All you do is show up the day of the Young Eagles Rally event and complete the registration form.
