Flying at Young Eagles Rally this Weekend

Watch out for the big grins on the kids face!!!

They are definitely contagious!
 
Have fun. Be careful with them getting in and out of the plane, the kids can be a bit rough on interiors.
 
Have fun. Carry a camera. If the kids don't have their own, tell them to pass yours around. Get their email addresses and send their photos to them.
 
Perfect weather in central texas today. Sadly, I had no fuel pressure showing during run-up and aborted.
 
Personally speaking, flying kids is about the most fun you can have in a small single. I've been flying them since I got my license, most though Young Eagles events but I have also taken a few friends kids. Depending on the organizers, the kids get a 20-30 minute flight, a certificate, and may even get a picture or two. In my case, I give every NEW passenger a trinket as a commemorative of the flight. It has been AOPA wings, Wright Brothers/100 Year wings, and now it's 100 years of Naval aviation.
As long as you are an EAA national member, you can fly them on your own. Go out and have some fun.
