Free Flights for Kids: Experience the Excitement of Aviation

Chesapeake Sport Pilot is excited to announce that our volunteer pilots will once again be offering free introductory flights for kids ages 8–17 on September 19th, from 9am-12pm!

These short flights are generously donated by pilots who are part of the Chesapeake Sport Pilot flying community. Kids will take to the skies for an exciting local flight around Kent Island, giving them a chance to see their community from a whole new perspective—and experience what it's like to fly in a real airplane.

For kids who already dream about aviation, this can be an incredible opportunity to inspire their interest in flying. And for those who have never considered becoming a pilot, it just might be the experience that gets them hooked!

There is no cost to participate. These flights are made possible entirely through the generosity of our volunteer pilots who believe in sharing their love of aviation with the next generation.

Come fly with us and discover the joy of aviation!
