A new season started in March. Registration has been filling up in less than 5 hours. 35 flight slots. The Young Eagles Day website sends out reminder emails 3 days before the rally. All you need to do is click the box "I'm attending" or "I can't make it". Please, if you sign-up for an event and later find out you're not going to make it. Cancel your flight so we can fill it with another child.

Once you register your child. The next page is your confirmation. Find the waiver form, print it, sign it and bring to the event. This will save you from filling out forms on the day of the event. The form has your Childs registration ID on the top and your name with a place to sign, your childs name and on the bottom open lines for our Pilots information. One form per child on a separate piece of paper.

Founded in 1992, the Young Eagles program is dedicated to giving youth ages 8–17, an opportunity to go flying in a general aviation airplane. These flights are offered free of charge and are made possible through the generosity of EAA member volunteers.

It’s the only program of its kind, with the sole mission to introduce and inspire kids in the world of aviation.

Today, the Young Eagles program has flown over 2.2 million kids.

The Young Eagles Program

EAA Chapter 43 holds Young Eagle Rallies once a month from March through October at the Erie Municipal Tri-County Airport. The flights are provided free by volunteer pilots and ground support personnel in the hope of inspiring kids to explore the world of aviation.  Due to the limited number of seats available at each rally, EAA Chapter 43 allows young people to register for only one flight per year. Participating youth must be between the ages of 8 and 17 at the time of their flight.

To sign up your children for one of our upcoming Young Eagles rallies, please fill out the form by clicking the link below and submitting the form.

 Note: Liability and release forms signed by a parent or legal guardian will be available for review and signature on the morning of the young eagle rally.  Completion of these forms is required for youth to participate in a flight.
