Young Eagles Flights

Launched in 1992, the Young Eagles program has dedicated more than 25 years to giving youth ages 8–17 their first free ride in an airplane. It’s the only program of its kind, with the sole mission to introduce and inspire kids in the world of aviation. 

At Chapter 943, we sponsor at least two Young Eagle days each year. Over the last five years we have helped more than 500 area kids get an “Eagle’s Eye” view of our beautiful island.
