Our Program
The National EAA Young Eagles program has flown more than 2.3 million boys and girls between the ages of 8 and 17.
Chapter 301 has flown more than 10,000 Young Eagle flights in the Denver area. Flights are completely free, and we strive for one child per plane to give everyone an opportunity for “stick time.”

2026 Schedule
That's a wrap for our 2026 Young Eagles season! As we continue to share the experience of flight with as many young people as possible, our rallies will continue to prioritize first-time participants. Please keep an eye on this page for updates in 2027.
We can't wait to welcome more young aviators next season.
