Young Eagles
One of the most popular ways EAA youth take flight is through involvement with the Young Eagles program. The EAA Young Eagles program was launched in 1992 to give eight- to 17-year-olds the opportunity to fly in general aviation airplanes. These flights are offered free of charge and are made possible through the generosity of EAA donors.
Since Young Eagles began, more than 1.5 million youth have taken flight through the program. Young Eagles have been registered in more than 90 different countries and have been flown by nearly 40,000 volunteer pilots.
