Unless the kids are brought in as Boy Scout group or something (BSA
has additional requirements and provides add'l insurance) all you
really need is a private. They may require 200 hours time but I can't
remember for sure. You also need to have "base" insurance (1,000,000
total 100,000 seat) and EAA makes the policy "smooth" for free.

The FAA wants to change that. There is currently a proposal to require
500 total time for pilots. AOPA is fighting that.

Aside from joining a local EAA chapter, what other qualifications must a
pilot have in order to become a volunteer for the Young Eagles
program? After poking around the EAA website I get the impression there
is nothing else, but want to verify.
