Title:
New Braunfels VMC Club Meeting - Great Lakes Wind Challenge
Topic:
A Great Lakes Biplane Can Be Enjoyable to Fly but What about Cross-Wind Limits
Date and Time:
Tuesday, November 11, 2025, starting at 18:30 Central Standard Time Download Calendar File
Speaker(s):
Terry Ross - ATP, CFI, CFI-I and Airplane Owner
Brief Description:

Youth and aviation are a great mix until perhaps a little over confidence steps in. Flying a Great Lakes biplane can be fun on a nice day but, what about limits.  Do you have any cross wind limits?  What happens when all of the controls are put in and you still drift?  Come and discuss your crosswind challenges.

EAA/VMC Club, through the EAA's global Chapter structure, provides organized "hangar flying" focused on building flying knowledge and skills.  The program's network promotes a safety culture through continued education through safety and proficiency and real life experience. Monthly meetings offer an opportunity to share in-flight experiences and valuable safety tips.

Through the FAA Safety Program, aviation professionals provide informative WINGS presentations.  Membership in the EAA/VMC Club is encouraged but not required to participate in this meeting.

What is the EAA/VMC Club?

What is the purpose of EAA/VMC Club?

At EAA/VMC Club, our aim is to promote VFR flying, proficiency, and safety.  Along with VFR flying and monthly local meetings, we offer a resource-rich website which provides an electronic experience base.

Our intent is to create a community of pilots to share information, provide recognition, foster communications, promote safety and build proficiency in instrument flying.  EAA VMC Club offer monthly meetings in which pilots can network and share knowledge and experiences.

Do you need to bring anything?

First, bring your thoughts or story and be willing to share them with the group.  This meeting is very interactive.  Participation by the group is a fundamental element to the EAA/VMC Club meeting.

Others have found it helpful to bring along a copy of their flight manual, GPS manual, and charts.  If you navigate with an iPad, bring it along.
