Young Eagles Program

The EAA 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!

Since 1992, the Young Eagles program has flown over 2 .4 million kids! 
​Young Eagles have been registered in more than 90 different countries and have been flown by more than 41,000 volunteer pilots.

Most Young Eagle flights last between 20-30 minutes. 
Once back on the ground, there will be additional time for you to ask questions about the flight.  Ask away!  Your pilot will be happy to tell you more about flying and their particular airplane.

Chapter 663 Policy for Young Eagle Rallies
EAA Chapter 663 in Livermore policy is to ensure first-time flyers can experience the magic of flight. Individuals who've had the pleasure of taking off two or more times at any Young Eagles EAA rally are now kindly asked to fly standby to allow first time flyers a chance to fly. If your child has flown with the Young Eagles more than two times, we can no longer guarantee a free flight. Your child will be moved to our standby list in the event of a last-minute cancellation or no show. This may require a longer wait time.

Through this policy, the chapter seeks to prioritize first time flyers who have not yet experienced their first Young Eagles flight, as well as respect the time and resources of our volunteer pilots. EAA Chapter 663 remains committed to the Young Eagles mission. We are grateful to our dedicated families for their understanding of this new policy.
