EAA Virtual Ultralight Days return on February 21-23 building community, sharing knowledge for ultralight enthusiasts
Free event features 15 webinars over three days
EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (January 16, 2023) — Experts from throughout the ultralight community will share their knowledge to those engaged in the lighter side of recreational aviation on February 21-23, as EAA Virtual Ultralight Days hosts webinars open to all at no charge.
The 15 total webinars – five on each of the three days – are based on the highly successful format used during the first EAA Virtual Ultralight Days, EAA Homebuilders Week and EAA’s popular webinar series. The live sessions will be presented by well-known subject matter experts in the ultralight community, with question-and-answer periods to address specific questions. “Ultralight flying continues to be one of the purest, and most accessible ways to enjoy aviation. EAA Virtual Ultralight Days is a way to make our community stronger, safer, and more fun,” said Timm Bogenhagen, EAA Ultralight and Light Plane Community Manager. “This three-day event connects well with EAA’s mission to grow participation in aviation by sharing The Spirit of Aviation, inviting everyone to learn and develop their own skills and knowledge.” Topics covered will include how to get started in Ultralights; how-to instructions on a variety of Ultralight aircraft like fixed-wing, powered parachutes, powered paragliders, helicopters, and weight-shift trikes; and overall informative topics on maintenance, airport operations, safety inspections, and more. All sessions are free of charge to everyone, with the archived video presentations available to EAA members afterward. Pre-registration is encouraged, with registration links and additional schedule information available at EAA.org/UltralightDays. About EAA
