Well, I participated in my first Young Eagles event this weekend. We flew all day on Saturday. I flew 11 sorties and carried 33 kids in total. Overall a great experience and I cannot wait for the next one to come around.
 
Good job. No YEs in my area. I volunteered to fly Boy Scouts at my airport last Saturday but they don't allow EABs. :(

Great job!! That's a long day :)
 
I do miss those flights. We have one coming up this weekend (every 3rd Saturday of the month) and while I could go participate as line crew or whatever, I just enjoy flying more. Sold my Cherokee this year and I'm still looking for a replacement even though I know I can't really afford it at the moment :).
 
I fly young eagles one Saturday a month while in Fla.,having only a two seater I usually get in three or four flight a morning,most I've done in a day was eight . Really enjoy doing the flights.

See you this Saturday Ron :). I'll probably be in a rental Archer from St. Pete Air.
