Event Details and Registration

The ACAS addresses pilot awareness gaps due to the timing of briefings and other communications. By regulation, pilots are required to be aware of all meteorological or aeronautical information pertinent to their flights. Pilots typically obtain a briefing over the phone or via the internet some time before a flight. Pilots may also obtain an updated briefing when they call to activate. However, as soon as a briefing is completed, new or modified safety critical conditions can arise, such as a severe weather forecast or observation, an airport closure, or a temporary flight restriction. In the preflight time frame this is primarily an issue of convenience; in the in-flight time frame, it becomes a matter of safety.

What is the IMC Club?

IMC Club, through its nationwide chapters, provides organized "hangar flying" focused on building instrument flying knowledge and skills. The organization network promotes a safety culture through continued education and believes that safety and proficiency are developed through education and experience. Monthly meetings offer an opportunity to share in-flight experiences and valuable safety tips. Through the FAA Safety Program, aviation professionals offer informative WINGS presentations.  You do not have to be an instrument rated pilot to attend. EAA membership or membership in the international IMC Club is encouraged but not required. For more information and to attend this event, click the link below and register TODAY!

IMC Club is the brain child of Radek Wyrzykowski; a Master Certified Flight Instructor, Instrument and Multi-Engine Instructor.  As a flight instructor in Norwood, Massachusetts, Radek developed a volunteer mentor program to help instrument pilots improve their proficiency, and they loved it.

What is the purpose of IMC Club?

At IMC Club, our purpose is to promote instrument flying, proficiency and safety.  Along with IFR flying and monthly local chapter meetings, we offer a resource-rich website which provides an electronic experience base.

Our intent is to create a community of pilots in order to share information, provide recognition, foster communications, promote safety and build proficiency in instrument flying.  IMC Club chapters 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 key element to the IMC 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?

You don't need an instrument rating to attend.  This meeting is open to all current, non-current, and future instrument pilots.
