EAA 5th grade Airport Day

Hello IFC,
Today I got the opportunity for the 7 year in a row to help with our local EAA chapters Airport Day. There was 250 eager 5th graders and 8 pilots and planes to take them flying for a quick 20 minute flight around our area! I hope you all enjoy the photos l!

In my opinion, airports and airlines should really launch more programs to invigorate kids to work in the industry… “Shortage of pilots” as people say.
