Young Eagles Program |
 |
The Young Eagles Program's objective is to
introduce young people to the world
of sport
aviation. To this end volunteer pilots
provide
free airplane rides along with an introduction
to the parts of an aircraft, basic
flight
dynamics, and how an aircraft is controlled
in flight.
EAA Chapter 130 has an active Young Eagles
Program. Our primary pilots so far have been
our President, Scott Jordan, and our Technical
Counselor, Tony Castellano. Scott is currently
a professional pilot for a major company
and is a former USAF pilot with experience
in many types of aircraft including the B1
Bomber. Tony has been flying for many years
and takes great delight in introducing many
young people to the world of sport aviation.
