About EAA
After World War II a group of
aviation enthusiasts in Milwaukee, WI under the leadership of Paul Poberezny
petitioned the federal government to once again allow the construction of
home-built airplanes. The experimental
category already existed as each prototype aircraft design was licensed in
that category before it completed its
certification tests.
This organization, now world wide,
is the
Experimental Aircraft
Association.
The EAA Chapter 274 Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity.
Chapter 274 activities have grown year-by-year as the
international fly-ins at Rockford, IL, and later at Oshkosh, WI have grown.
These yearly fly-ins have been the driving force behind our chapter growth.
