Free Flights
The American Eagle Foundation is well known for using some of the Eagles in its care to perform "free-flights during the Star Spangled Banner. The American Eagle Foundation found that people responded well to the sight of an Eagle flying from one trainer to another. Since 1991, AEF Eagles have performed over 8,000 free flights ranging from venues such as school gyms, all the way to Super Bowl and World Series games. Named in honor of the lost space shuttle crew, Challenger has performed free-flights at hundreds of events.
