10,000th Free Airplane Flight for Kids to be Celebrated on November 26th at Whiteman Airport

10,000th Free Airplane Flight for Kids to be Celebrated on November 26th at Whiteman Airport
Dear Sunland-Tujunga Neighborhood Council Friends,
YOU ARE INVITED TO- JOIN THE CELEBRATION! The 10,000th young person is to get a free “Young Eagles” airplane ride from the pilots of Chapter 40 of the Experimental Aircraft Association based at Whiteman Airport will be on Saturday, November 26, 2022.
There should be about 75-85 flights provided on that day to kids between 8 through 17. All kids are invited to discover the gift of flight, and the rides are entirely paid for by the pilots.
The “Young Eagles” is an EAA National Program, and Chapter 40 has been providing these complimentary introductory flight experiences on the 4th Saturday of every month at San Fernando Valley’s Whiteman Airport since 1992 (except on Christmas Day or Eve). Young Eagle events start at 10:30 a.m. and run until about 2 p.m. Main airport entrance.
EAA Chapter 40 is arranging a VERY special flight for the lucky youngster. The flight will be in a VERY EXCITING and UNEXPECTED aircraft. When revealed, there will be a HUGE SMILE on one very happy young aviator.
Caveat: we will not fly if the weather that day is not safe. The alternate date if that happens will be Dec 17.
