Folks, we are in need of pilots and their trusty aircraft for giving back to the community (while investing in the future of aviation) by giving Young Eagle rides!
Here is a checklist for you to consider if you are willing/able to give YE rides:
On the morning of the Young Eagle Rally we will meet for a pre-Rally Briefing at the FBO. As we have done successfully in the past several years, each aircraft will follow the same route, and it is important for you to attend the briefing. We want to continue to have this be a very safe Rally, and flying a uniform pattern greatly reduces the chances for conflicts.
Jim Big Deal Dickerson is likely to be there to give preflight explanations to the kids and parents, using a static aircraft. The kids will then be taken to meet their pilot and her/his aircraft!
This has been a really fun event and we hope you will be able to help us again this year. Thank you!

- Possess a current Medical Certificate (if applicable).
- Be current to carry passengers in the aircraft you plan to use.
- Have a current biennial flight review.
- Complete the EAA Youth Protection Policy, which includes a short training session and background check. Once certified, you are good to go for 3 years!

- Conduct flights in an aircraft that is in airworthy condition.
- Have Aircraft Passenger Liability Insurance for the aircraft used (owned, rented, or borrowed).
