News:

Our Young Eagles flight rally season ended with our rally on November 19 which had been rescheduled from November 12 due to rain.  The weather on the 19th was perfect.  Thirty-eight Young Eagles were flown by six pilots.  Don Burns made the most flights (6) while Brandon Dever and Don Wolfe tied for the most Young Eagles flown (9).

Overall for the year there were 155 flights and 271 Young Eagles flown.  The totals would have been higher if a seventh flight rally had not been canceled in September due to smoke from the Mosquito Fire.  For 2022 Don Burns had the most flights (23) and Andy Robinson flew the most Young Eagles (46).
