George, President of EAA Chapter 17 relates how was his experience during the Young Eagles Flight this past May 13th.
"May weather finally allowed us to hold a very successful Young Eagles rally at Downtown Island Airport. We had 100 kids registered to take their first flights, but only 63 showed up and flew for the first time in their young lives.The parents were just as excited as the kids. This was my first Young Eagles event and I got to take 7 kids up myself."
