Young Eagles

Founded in 1992, the Young Eagles program is dedicated to giving youth ages 8–17, an opportunity to go flying in a general aviation airplane. These flights are offered free of charge and are made possible through the generosity of EAA member volunteers.

Today, the Young Eagles program has flown over 2 million young people. Chapter 72 is an active participant in the program, having flown over 3,000 Young Eagles.
