EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (June 24, 2024) — Thousands of EAA events and aviation activities are now easy to access on ForeFlight, one of the world’s most popular electronic flight bags, via an agreement between ForeFlight and the Experimental Aircraft Association.

“Adding EAA’s more than 14,000 annual aviation events makes the ForeFlight database even more comprehensive for the thousands of pilots who rely on it for flight information,” said Ren Scott, EAA’s director of business development. “ForeFlight has always been an excellent source of flight planning and safety, but with EAA’s information it will add more reasons to fly and destinations to discover.”

The cooperative effort is now officially live, giving EAA chapters an opportunity to update their upcoming activities on EAA’s calendar of events. That calendar will regularly and automatically be loaded into the ForeFlight database for pilot reference.

“EAA shares The Spirit of Aviation like no other organization, from mega-events such as Oshkosh to the thousands of local chapter fly-ins, rallies, and airport pancake breakfasts held every year,” said Ryan McBride, ForeFlight’s Head of Community. “This joint project with EAA will make our new capability more comprehensive and useful as it brings information on the aviation gatherings that add so much to the pilot experience.”

Local EAA events must be listed on the online EAA calendar of events to be included in the upcoming ForeFlight capability. More details on listing local events are available through the EAA chapter office.
