EAA Chapter 1361 will be conducting a Flying Start event on May 28th at the Reno-Stead Airport.
EAA’s Flying Start program introduces interested individuals to the endless opportunities and fun that
result in earning a pilot’s certificate. The event will cover the steps and requirements in learning to fly,
provide tips on how to make it economical, and will culminate in a free introductory flight referred to as an Eagle Flight.
The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) has approximately 900 chapters around the world has the mission of growing participation in aviation by sharing “The Spirit of Aviation.” Chapter activities
range from monthly meetings, to airport open houses, fly-ins, educational programs, and pancake
breakfasts that share aviation with the community and build a stronger bond between local aviation and
the public.
EAA chapters are the backbone of the international EAA organization, which has more than 200,000
members. The local organizations include general EAA chapters as well as specialized chapters for
Vintage aircraft, Warbird, Ultralight and Aerobatic flight enthusiasts.
