Thanks goes out to EAA44 and EAA46 Chapters...

By Michelle Wheatley

I just wanted to say thank you to the EAA chapters of Rochester and Buffalo for hosting it's Young Eagles Flight Program today at the Genesee County Airport.

It was a great opportunity for children ages 7 + to experience the joy of flying. And the pilots volunteer their time and money for this to happen!  As I spoke to one of the pilots that took my 13 year old daughter up, he said they predict a loss of pilots within the next 10 years--what a great opportunity to grow potential pilots through this program.

My children did this one other time and this time was just as a great. We look forward to having another experience like this again in the Spring!
