Event Details and Registration

You are going to pick up a mechanic and fly him and yourself back to your home airport.  On the flight to pick the mechanic up you perceive the engine is running rough.  You are under Class B airspace and you usually get clearance into Class B but today you cannot get a word in edge wise.  What are you going to do? 

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 and believes that we develop safety and proficiency through education 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. For more information and to take part in this event, click the link below and register TODAY!

Have you ever asked yourself, how can I keep my skills as sharp as they were when I received my certificate and have fun at the same time?  Lets look at ways we can keep our flying skills up to par and more importantly have some fun while doing it.  Training and fun, not often known as something that goes together very well.  We can put together scenarios and training that mimics what we really do on our daily flights.  Instilling fun and maybe a little bit of competition can help ensure we develop our flying and keep our skills sharp and confidence high while we fly!

What is the EAA/VMC Club?

The EAA/VMC Club is modeled after the popular IMC Club concept which provides organized “hangar flying” focused on building proficiency in instrument flying. The EAA/VMC Club will do the same, but for pilots who are not instrument rated and fly primarily under visual flight rules and VMC.

What is the purpose of EAA/VMC Club?

At EAA/VMC Club, our aim is to promote instrument flying, proficiency, and safety.  Along with 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 general aviation.  EAA/VMC Club offers 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 of 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.

Who can attend?

This meeting is open to all current, non-current, and future pilots.
