Pilots Needed for Young Eagle Rally!

Mar 25, 2008 --- Northampton Airport will be hosting a Young Eagles rally on Saturday, June 7. We have a group of 20 or so local youth who will be coming out to experience flight for perhaps the first time and we need active EAA pilots to help make these kids' dreams come true!

Last year's rally was highly successful with 19 students from Westfield coming out with their families for an amazing day at the airport. Each student had a tour of the airport, time on the simulator, got some groundschool instruction as well as a flight with the EAA pilots.

Pilots with an active EAA membership are the only ones who are eligible to fly with the kids that day, but if you would like to be on hand to help out giving tours, at Registration, on the simulator or in any other way, we'd love to have you! Please contact Holly to let her know you'd be interested in helping out!
