Chapter Major Achievement Awards – Your Nominations Sought
March 2016 - EAA recognizes chapter members for their personal commitment and contributions to EAA, chapters, and their aviation community.
Through the chapter major achievement awards, EAA members share qualities including a sense of volunteerism, accomplishment, creativity, professional achievement, and dedication to their chapters.

Selected award recipients will be honored at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2016.
