EAA Chapter 32, normally based at St. Charles County Airport Smartt Field, flew their scheduled October Young Eagle rally at Creve Coeur Airport instead of their home field in conjunction with the GYAF's educational exhibits. EAA Chapter pilots, ground crews and even the cooks brought everything they needed for the day's flights, lunch fundraiser and even their monthly scheduled Scout Aviation Badge workshop. Six aircraft of various types and seating capacity flew the Young Eagles within the flow of the normal airport traffic, with time between flights for a short ground instruction session and presentation of certificates and logbooks.
The Aero Experience thanks Creve Coeur Airport, the Gateway Youth Aeronautical Foundation and EAA Chapter 32 for teaming up to produce an enjoyable youth aviation event. We look forward to promoting similar events in the year to come. The GYAF will continue to serve visitors throughout the year - contact them for availability.
