Our June 8th Young Eagle Event
Has Been Cancelled Due to the Weather

We regret the inconvenience of this cancellation but Mother Nature doesn't always listen to our prayers.

Please check back over the next couple weeks for the date of our next Young Eagle event. At this point no date has been chosen.

Please do not email our Young Eagle coordinators for our next date.
They need to coordinate our next event with our pilots and ground crew which takes time.

The SAC is the future home of EAA Chapter 44. It is located on the north side of Ledgedale Airport (7G0) just off the end of the west tie down ramp. We hope to occupy it in the fall of 2010.

Donations Now Accepted On-Line Towards
The Building of The Sport Aviation Center

EAA 44 is undertaking a capital campaign to raise funds to build a Sport Aviation Center that will benefit the Rochester Community and our members. We are asking for your support by making a tax-deductible donation to EAA Chapter 44.

If you have any skills, resources or materials that you think might help us, we'd also invite you to CONTACT US about them.

This facility will be a place where members can perform final assembly of their own homebuilt or restored airplanes, can offer free Young Eagle flights to kids, meet new and interesting people, perhaps take a Sport Pilot ground school, learn about General and Sport Aviation, learn about the Experimental Aircraft Association, learn about Rochester's rich aviation history, hear presentations by aviation dignitaries.

You can make a secure donation here using your credit card or PayPal account:

EAA Chapter 44 is a 501(c)3 organization registered with the United States IRS and New York State.

We are dedicated to the promotion of aviation activities, and the preservation of our aviation heritage.
