EAA 690 has a very active Youth Aviation Program. We offer a robust build program too…
Dream it
The build program currently meets on the 2nd, 3rd & 4th Saturday each month from 9:00 am - 1:00 pm. Our mentors work with the youth to guide them through the process of building different airplanes. We currently have four projects in process, a Zenith 601XLB, a Thorpe T-18, a full motion simulator, and various radio controlled models.
Build it
The program is available for youth age 14 and up. Youth that participate earn credit for the time they work. Currently, those credits can be applied toward flight training in the future. The program has a maximum capacity of twelve participants. If you have a youth that has a keen interest in aviation please email our youth program leadership.

As with anything these days, there is paperwork involved. Please read and complete the following documents, as necessary.
