EAA Chapter 515

Fort Collins / Loveland, CO

Welcome to EAA Chapter 515

Whether you fly, build, restore or simply enjoy airplanes and aviation, you are welcome to attend our events and join our chapter. We are a group of aviation enthusiasts, aircraft builders, and pilots who get together with like minded people to share ideas, exchange information, encourage safety, serve the local aviation community and have a lot of fun doing so. Unless otherwise posted below our monthly meetings are the first Tuesday of each month @6:30 pm in the Jet Center Hanger at the Northern Colorado Regional Airport in Loveland, CO.  Please come to our next meeting or event as our guest.

For more information on our chapter, please contact our president via the contact us page or visit us on Facebook.
