EAA Chapter 864 had two outstanding applicants for the EAA Ray Scholarship this year.
Kyra Gallagher of O’Fallon, Illinois has received a unique full-scholarship opportunity for flight training, thanks to EAA Chapter 864 and the Ray Aviation Scholarship program administered by the Experimental Aircraft Association in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Kyra Gallagher is training at Murray Air, based in Greenville, Illinois. The scholarship is designed to support a flight student through both written and practical segments of flight training that are part of successful FAA pilot certification.
Adam Elik of Godfrey, Illinois is the recipient of a Chapter 864 scholarship to help cover part of the costs for his flight training. Adam has completed his flight training and is now a Private Pilot. This scholarship was funded by the chapter and from donations to the newly created scholarship fund.
