The Young Eagles program, part of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), introduces young people ages 8-17 to the world of aviation by offering free introductory flights. Launched in 1992, the program is run by volunteer pilots who are passionate about sharing the joy of flight with the next generation. Each Young Eagles flight is more than just a ride; it’s a hands-on experience where kids can learn about airplanes, the basics of flight, and safety. Since its inception, the program has provided over two million young people with their first aviation experience, inspiring future pilots and aviation enthusiasts across the globe.
