About IMC & VMC Clubs
The IMC Club’s purpose is to promote instrument 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 instrument flying. EAA’s IMC Club chapters offer monthly meetings in which pilots can network and share knowledge and experiences. (Learn more at: https://eaa.org/imcclub)
Non-instrument rated pilots who want to improve their proficiency now have an excellent new resource through EAA’s VMC Club. (Learn more at: https://eaa.org/vmcclub )
