Wichita EAA Chapter 88 and our local 99s have been discussing a joint Girls on the Fly-Young Eagles and Let’s Fly event for several years. Earlier this year, representatives from both groups met and put together a plan. Now that summer, the ARC, and the annual EAA Fly-In are over, we can focus on this one-day event.
Registration is online only and is limited to 20 participants. The day will draw from both organization’s introductory flights for women. This event would be great for mothers, daughters, and granddaughters to share!
