EAA Chapter 1298 Brooksville, Florida (KBKV)
Request a Young Eagles Flight
Welcome! We enjoy introducing children and students to the joys of flight.
We've even broken the process down into three easy steps, but first we need to
make you aware of a few things:
All of our pilots are volunteers. Many of them travel during the
summer months, and of course, around holidays. While we try hard, it may
not be possible to pair the child with a pilot immediately.
Sometimes we will collect numerous requests, and then organize a
Young Eagles Rally. A rally is a day where we get 5 or 6 pilots
together and do nothing but fly Young Eagles flights from morning to
mid-afternoon. We are simply asking that you be patient with us.
- Step 1 - Requirements
We do have a couple requirements. First, the child must be 8 to 17 years of
age, and be able to follow explicit instructions. This is for the child's
safety. Second, a parent or guardian must accompany
the child to the airport, and keep the child under supervision before and
after the flight. This is especially important during a rally as there
will be many other children present. We take the safety of our
youngsters very seriously, and must emphasize that the airport is not a
playground.
- Step 2 - Registration Form
If you don't have a printer, then skip to step 3. If you do have a printer,
you may be able to save a bit of time on flight day by printing out the
Young Eagles Registration Form
and filling it out prior to the arranged day of flight.
- Step 3 - Submit the request to our chapter
