Title:
EAA Chapter 846 VMC Club
Topic:
Cross-Country Planning-Real vs Actual
Brief Description:
Moderator Gary Baker is picking up his RV-6 the week of October 19 from Billings, MT, flying to Medina, OH. Plan his return flight as you would fly it and we will see how it matches up with his actual flight! Use a TAS of 150 knots, fuel burn of 9.2 gph, and total usable fuel of 36.5 gallons. Bring your favorite electronic flight bag (EFB). You will be dealing with mountainous terrain and fuel stops.
Various aspects of ForeFlight will be covered, as well as the FAA General Aviation Joint Safety Committee topic of the month.

EAA VMC Clubs are extensions to local EAA chapters and offer monthly meetings in which pilots can network and share knowledge and experience. The meetings use real-world scenarios to engage members, and allow a free exchange of information that improves awareness and skills. The intent is to create a community of pilots willing to share information, provide recognition, foster communications, promote safety, and build proficiency. Through the EAA VMC Club programs, visual flight rule pilots have improved their proficiency.
