VMC CLUB BACKGROUND AND NEXT MEETING
BACKGROUND:
Non-instrument rated pilots who want to improve their proficiency now have an excellent new resource through EAA’s VMC Club.
The VMC Club offers 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. All Chapter 288 members, in good standing, are automatically eligible to take part in the FREE VMC and IMC Club program.
THIS PAST MARCH VMC MEETING - FROM JOHN FOSTER
At the March VMC meeting Craig showed a very informative video dealing with loss of control. We received several favorable comments from those in attendance. The video lasts about 25 minutes, so while you are practicing your social distancing at home why not watch it? As a result of watching this video, I have changed my flying technique. This is the link to the YouTube video.
FUTURE VMC MEETINGS WILL BE DETERMINED BASED ON UPDATES ABOUT THE VIRUS
