Who are the Pilots?
The pilots who are participating in the Young Eagles program are local members of EAA who are volunteering their time and aircraft to make these flights possible. Each pilot is licensed by the Federal Aviation Administration (or if you’re outside the USA, the governing organization for aviation, such as Transport Canada) and all aircraft are likewise licensed by the government. The flights will be conducted according to federal regulations. No aerobatic maneuvers will be performed, nor will flights be made during unsafe weather conditions.
