✈️ Every Dream Starts with Looking Up ✈️
As kids, we’ve all done it—stopped what we were doing, looked up at an airplane crossing the sky, and imagined what it would be like to fly. For many, that dream fades with time, but for some, it becomes the start of an incredible journey.
That’s why, today, we celebrate EAA Young Eagles Day.
Created by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), the Young Eagles program gives kids the opportunity to experience the magic of flight firsthand through a free introductory airplane ride. It’s more than just a flight—it’s a chance to inspire confidence, spark curiosity, and show young people that their dreams are within reach.
The next pilot, aerospace engineer, air traffic controller, or aviation enthusiast could be sitting in the seat next to you now!
Did you know there are only 6 EAA chapters in Arkansas and the first one chartered in Arkansas based at the NLR Airport? Thank you to EAA Chapter 165 for inspiring our future aviators.
Help us celebrate Young Eagles Day and support your kids dreams to be the next generation of aviators. Because every pilot started somewhere—and for many, it all began by looking up at the sky.
🌤️ Dream Big.
✈️ Fly First.
⭐ Chase Your Dreams.
