Sean Tucker Webchat Postponed

Taking Your Questions

ANN REAL TIME UPDATE 1645 A weather delay has forced the postponement of the Sean Tucker Webchat scheduled for Wednesday. The chat will now take place Thursday the 21st, at 1900 CDT.

Tucker has flown more than 700 aerobatic performances at more than 300 air shows, entertaining in excess of 60 million fans in his 30 year career. Air show fans of all ages will have a chance to ask him about aerobatics and performing by participating in a live webchat, sponsored by EAA Young Eagles on Thursday, July 21st from 1900 to 2000 CDT.

"Air shows are tremendously exciting and with pilots like Sean performing, it's easy to understand why," said Adam Smith, EAA vice president of outreach. "Sean is one of the best in the business. Over half of the maneuvers in his show are original. He even flies backward - straight down and tail first - during his performances. I'm sure that will be a topic of conversation during the upcoming Young Eagles live webchat."

The Young Eagles webchat offers visitors a monthly opportunity to ask questions of interesting people in aviation, and have them answered on the spot. These text-based webchats take place on the third Wednesday of the month. Participants simply log in to the chat at www.youngeagles.org and fire away with their questions.

Just days after the webchat, visitors will be able to experience Tucker's amazing aerobatic performance first-hand at EAA AirVenture July 25 - 31, 2005.

Always an EAA AirVenture favorite, some call Tucker the finest civilian aerobatic pilot flying today. He has amassed more than 20,000 hours of flying time, and was the 1988 U.S. National Advanced Aerobatic Champion. Tucker received two of the industry's most prestigious awards in 1992, The Art Scholl Memorial Showmanship Award and The Bill Barber Award for Air Show Showmanship. In 2003, the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum named him one of the 25 "Living Legends of Flight."

EAA's Young Eagles Program was founded in 1992 and has provided more than one million free demonstration flights to young people around the world through the efforts of 37,000 volunteer pilots and 50,000 ground volunteers. EAA designed the Young Eagles website from the ground up and launched it in April 2005 to meet the information and interaction needs of young people.
