SCHOLARSHIPS !  EAA AIR ACADEMY (2)  FLIGHT TRAINING (2)  Every year Chapter 526 pays the tuition for one or more Young Eagles to attend the EAA Air Academy in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for a week.  For 2020 the Chapter has partnered with the Auburn Aviation Association to fund one of AAA’s annual flight training scholarships, and to combine the selection process for the Air Academy scholarships with the selection process for the flight training scholarships.

Applications will be accepted online only, beginning January 1, 2020.  Deadlines are January 31, 2020, for the Air Academy and February 29, 2020, for the flight training scholarships. Click here for more details.

Our Young Eagles flight rally schedule for 2020 has been posted.  Most rallies will be held as usual on the Saturday following the second Wednesday of the month.  However, the April rally will be delayed a week to avoid a schedule conflict with the Easter weekend.  Click here for the complete schedule and additional information.
