First Meeting To Be Held November 7th

The National Association of Flight Instructors (NAFI) and IMC Club International on Thursday announced the founding of the NAFI Headquarters Chapter to promote instrument flying, proficiency and safety. NAFI Chapter is the IMC Club’s 40th Chapter nationwide and 10th since its presentation at AirVenture 2012 in Oshkosh, WI. The IMC Clubs concept is to bring together IFR-rated pilots who fly in real-world “actual IMC” and provide them an opportunity to share stories, network with the larger pilot community, and gain valuable insights and tips for their IFR flying.

The first meeting of the NAFI/IMC Club group will be held on November 7th at 6 PM at NAFI Headquarters offices in Kalamazoo, MI. The NAFI IMC Club Chapter is open to all current, non-current, and future instrument pilots. At the meeting, prospective members will be given the opportunity to interact with IMC Club founder and President Radek Wyrzykowski. IMC Club Meetings provide a forum to highlighting guest speakers and for promoting participation and discussion of IFR flying.

“Sharing your experience through IMC network, helps promote you, and your business, while promoting the continuing education and experience of IFR pilots everywhere,” said Jason Blair, the executive Director of the National Association of Flight Instructors.

The IMC Club NAFI Chapter is designed to promote proficiency among NAFI Members as well as all IMC Club member pilots worldwide. Every month the Chapter will discuss an issue or situation as a group. “If you are a CFII looking to build your business, making yourself known to local pilots is a great way to do that, and IMC Clubs provides you the perfect forum! In addition if you want to open Chapter in your area, as a NAFI member you will receive 50% discount of the chapter initiation fee,” added Radek Wyrzykowski, the President of IMC Club.
