Presentation, open house and Q&A re: learning to fly, the flight school at Twin Oaks, local aviation clubs and museums, the EAA 105 chapter club house and work shop. See the the Van's RV-12iS kit plane that was recently completed. Several mentors and airplanes available for Eagle or Young Eagle flights. Rain or shine. The club house is in hangar G1. There's very limited parking near the hangar. Please use the large parking lot near River Rd., then walk to the hangar.
Meet your Pilot (Only for the Eagle Flight) - Not the Flying Start event
The pilots who participate in the Flying Start / Eagle Flight programs are local members of EAA who are volunteering their time and aircraft to
make your flight possible. Each Eagles pilot is certificated with the Federal Aviation Administration or Transport Canada.
Flights are conducted according to federal regulations and no aerobatic maneuvers will be performed.
What will my pre-flight be like?
First of all, your pilot will explain what you will see and do. This may include explaining how airplanes work, looking at an aeronautical
chart (or map), and describing the interior of the airplane, including the instrument panel. Then comes the fun part: you get to go flying!
Safety Reminders
Safety is always top priority when it comes to aviation. Listen and follow instructions given by your pilot, stay away from the propellers,
and stay with your pilot or ground crew at all times.
What will my flight be like?
You will spend about an hour or so in the air and follow the basic steps in the flight pattern. You will experience the awesome
feeling of flight that many people only dream about. Many people remember this experience for the rest of their lives. You will, too!
