Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):

The purpose of EAA Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) Clubs is to promote recreational flying, proficiency, and safety. The intent is to create a community of pilots willing to share information, provide recognition, foster communications, promote safety, and build proficiency in VFR day and nighttime operations. EAA VMC Clubs are extensions to local EAA chapters and offer monthly VMC program meetings where pilots can network and share knowledge and experiences. Since 2017, pilots have improved their proficiency through the EAA VMC club programs and they love it.  

If you are not a member of the EAA and/or Chapter 770, a complimentary 6-month, full-benefit membership will be available. VMC Club attendance qualifies for FAA WINGS credit!
