Do you have your “10 for 2009”?
Since 1995, Young Eagle pilots have been encouraged to fly at least 10 Young Eagles during the calendar year. Those who reach that mark are recognized and begin accumulating Young Eagle credits that can be used to send a young person to an EAA Air Academy camp or help support your Chapter’s Young Eagle program. See the current “10 for 2009” listing.
