What is the EAA/VMC Club? 

EAA provides monthly program resources in the form of actual IMC and VMC related scenarios, designed to encourage open discussion and for all participants to answer the question, “What would you do if this happened to you?” 

EAA IMC/VMC Clubs are extensions of local EAA chapters, offering monthly IMC/VMC program meetings where pilots can network, share knowledge, and exchange experiences.
