CHAPTER 414 YOUNG EAGLES

YOUNG EAGLES LOGO

Kids Fly Free!

Kids really do fly free! Join the over 1.6 million kids who have enjoyed free airplane rides courtesy of the Experimental Aircraft Association. Licensed pilots donate their time and aircraft to give kids their introduction to the wonder of flight. While aloft (from Waukegan) the kids will see Great America, Lake Michigan, and on a clear day, downtown Chicago and/or Milwaukee in the distance.

We'll fly boys and girls, from 8 through 17 years old, who want to experience the thrill of flight!

Please RVSP with our Young Eagles Coordinator, Burt Spencer at 1 (224) 484-0414.

It helps us to schedule Kids and Pilots, and handle cancellations, if we get "weathered out". Special events may be scheduled based on demand. LARGE GROUPS ARE WELCOME! Call us!

A REGISTRATION FORM IS REQUIRED, (1 per flight, per Young Eagle), available on-site at the Event, or you can download and printout the form now (see links below), and fill it out before you come. The Registration Form MUST BE SIGNED by a Parent or Guardian (on the Liability Waiver Page).
