Fantastic weather, great food, friends, and lots of airplanes from across the state and beyond… what more could you want for the perfect fly-in? This year’s Planes & Pancakes in the Pines had a little of something for everyone. Thank you to everyone who attended! And a huge shout out of thanks to all the volunteers who made this year’s event an huge success.

This past Saturday, EAA Chapter 1044 participated in the Experimental Aircraft Association’s International Young Eagles Day.

Chapters from around the world offered youth from ages 8-17 the opportunity to experience to the wonders of aviation… and hopefully inspired a few. Our chapter and its pilots flew 20 local area youth on a short flight around the area. For many, this was their first flight in an aircraft of any type, large or small. All were excited to see their community from a new viewpoint… a couple thousand feet above. You can click HERE to see all the happy faces!

If you are interested in scheduling a ride for your child, please email us at eaa1044@gmail.com.

Be sure to join us for our annual Pancake Breakfast & Fly-In. This year’s event will be held on Saturday, July 13, 2019, from 7:00 to 11:00 a.m.

More details to come!
