ELMORE AL- EAA 822 Spring Fly In is this
Saturday at the Historic Wetumpka Airport starting at 9:00 am. Perhaps the most
fun and attended Young Eagle event in the state, kids from 8 to 17 years of age
can fly free. For the very young, age 7 and under, a fun simulator is ready for
them to swoop and turn.
As an early 1940's WW II Army Training Field, Wetumpka Airport is still turning out pilots. Savannah Weaver, a Young Eagle only a few years ago, is now flying Young Eagles with EAA 822 as a licensed pilot. She says she is giving back to those who want a chance to fly.
A community asset, the General Aviation airport offers a variety of services and is especially proud of a value added grass landing strip. Their unique rural location is the ideal location to learn how to fly and one of the busiest GA airports in the state.
