WHAT WE’RE ALL ABOUT

Our group of aviation enthusiasts, made up of pilots, mechanics, CFIs, retired veterans, and other aviation disciplines, meets monthly at the Skagit Regional Airport to discuss our mutual interests, to share the status of our current aircraft projects, and to be enlighten by a featured speaker with an adventure to share. We also host “spot landing” contests, barbecues, pancake breakfasts, and volunteer work parties at the Skagit Airport. And we participate in local fly-ins, such as in Anacortes and at Mears Air-Field in Concrete, WA. Our Chapter participates at the Arlington Air Show and volunteers by setting up the crowd fencing for that event.

You don’t have to own an aircraft to join the Chapter. An interest in aviation is all that’s required, and a desire to become actively involved with a great Chapter.

One of our most anticipated events is flying children from the ages of 8-17 years of age, free, through our Young Eagles Program sponsored through the EAA Organization in Oshkosh, WI. Chapter pilots volunteer their time and the expense of aircraft fuel to ensure that any child can experience the thrill of flying. This event requires just as many “ground-crew” volunteers as pilots. On average, we fly 60 children every year in the summertime during these one-day events. For details or to reserve a seat, please contact Doug Seward at the number on the Contact Us page.

We hope to hear from you, or better yet, to see you at our next meeting.
