Young Eagles News













Chapter leader Yacono passes 500 mark; Katz moves to number 2 position

Merritt Island, Florida. Mike flew 8 more Young Eagles Saturday, bringing his total number of missions flown to 234. That gives him the second highest total in our EAA Chapter behind the amazing Tony Yacono, who has just exceeded 500 Young Eagles flights! According to Bobbi, we flew 109 Young Eagles this time, 67 of whom had never flown before. The weather was perfect for flying - cool, clear and smooth. Here are some terrific photos taken in flight by our delightful passengers Savannah, Taylor, Geo, Alex, Marial, Dana, Jake and Lincoln. By the way, you can click on any photo to enlarge it.
