If you like aircraft and the people who fly them, the EAA – the Experimental Aircraft Association – is for you. EAA offers something for all enthusiasts – pilots, designers, builders, dreamers, in other words anyone who enjoys the unique experience and total freedom of flight. Everyone is most welcome.

Where we started …
The Experimental Aircraft Association was founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA in 1953 by aircraft designer and military aviator veteran Paul Poberezny, who originally started the organisation in the basement of his home for builders and restorers of recreational aircraft.


Today EAA has over 650 000 members worldwide and it’s headquarters is based in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, home of AirVenture Oshkosh, the world’s biggest aviation event! Today more than ever EAA continues to provide support and inspiration to pilots, airplane home builders and restorers, as well as hosting aviation fun and competitive events. EAA is all aviation enthusiasts!
