Young Eagles Day
Summer is drawing near and that means it’s time once again for young people aged 8 to 17 to take flight at the Brampton Flying Club and become Young Eagles. International Young Eagles Day this year is Saturday June 14th and flights will take place between 10 am and 2 pm. The Young Eagles program was launched in 1992 and since then over 1.3 million Young Eagles have been flown by over 41,000 volunteers in 90 countries. Last year Brampton broke a record flying almost 275 new Young Eagles. The record breaking event was also featured on an episode of TV’s “Wings Over Canada.” Young Eagles flights introduce the thrill and wonder of aviation to interested young people. The best part of the day is, of course, the flight itself which consists of a 20-30 minute trip around the beautiful Caledon area. But participants and visitors are also able to do plenty of airplane watching, take part in airport tours, and talk to pilots, instructors, and Air Cadets. Some Young Eagles have even gone on to become pilots. It really is a truly awesome experience for everyone. The best part is that the entire event is completely FREE!
