A team of Chapter 20 mentors and a group of aspiring Young Aviators spent over three years building a Van’s RV-12, which took its first flight September 19, 2020! The “Flying 12” equity club now owns the plane. We're kicking off a new build with the tail kit of another Van's RV-12. If you're interested in participating as a mentor or student, please email youngaviators@eaa20.org Young Aviators Launch Talk Series
“Young Aviators” was originally used to refer to the group of teenagers participating with the RV-12 build. We expanded the term to include Young Eagles teenage ground volunteers and now to Chapter 20's community of teenagers interested in aviation. When shelter in place happened, Young Aviators launched an online program. While created with teens in mind, the Young Aviators talks are open to everyone. Watch previous talks on YouTube. Email youngaviators@eaa20.org to hear about future events. The Young Aviators expanded their mission statement to:Young Aviators aims at unleashing and supporting students' passion for aviation and aerospace. We accomplish this through events, mentoring, and programs, such as the plane building program, an online talk series, and ground crew volunteering at Young Eagles events. To build a community, we also facilitate networking with like-minded students, pilots, and other aviation and aerospace professionals. |
