6th of July, 2024
We kick-off this day filled with special activities and fun.
Doors to the Museum open at 9:00am and regular adult admission is in place. All kids 11 years and younger are admitted FREE all day!
To make the day extra-special, we’ve invited the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) with their “Young Eagles” program to talk about flying and offer FREE introductory flights for kids ages 8 to 17 (parental consent required – flights will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis). In addition, there will be a flying demonstration of the North American P-51 "Mustang" for all to enjoy!
It’s Junior Aviator’s Day and what better way to get things going than a fantastic presentation on the fundamentals of flying, giving us a glimpse into the wonders and joy of flight.
Here’s a chance for your child to take their first flight in an airplane. The “Young Eagles” program of the EAA is the only program of its kind, with the sole mission to introduce and inspire kids into the world of aviation.
Since its launch in 1992, over 2.3 million young people have enjoyed these free introductory flights through “Young Eagles.” Many of these have gone on to earn their wings or pursue a career in aviation.
We’ll be offering a limited number of FREE flights, flown by qualified volunteer pilots, during Junior Aviator’s Day. We’re holding these flights on a first-come, first-served basis.
To qualify, each child must be between eight and seventeen years old. They must have a completed registration form signed by their parent or legal guardian.

* Submitting this form helps to reserve a seat on a flight, but does not guarantee your child(ren) a seat during this event. We will do our best to accommodate everyone.
We’ve got several food options and a great selection of ice cream treats for everyone.
Your ticket gets you access to all seven of our hangars and the over 100 aircraft and historical memorabilia on display. Our Museum Guides are on hand to tell you the stories of these aircraft and the personalities and events that surround them.
All in all, Saturday, July 6, 2024 at the Planes of Fame Air Museum is a great way to spend the day!
