Our chapter offers an IMC/VMC Club for our members to network and share flying knowledge and experience. Each month we cover an IFR and a VFR topic. We meet the 2nd Wednesday of every month. More information can be found at: IMC/VMC Club
The topic for the November meeting will be Unleaded Fuel.
The VMC Question of the Month for November is:
For the following questions, assume the in-flight visibility is 10 miles.
Part A: You're flying over Atlantic coastal waters, just off shore in class G airspace with overlying class E airspace at 700
feet. If you are flying at an altitude of 600 feet, clear of clouds, and the ceiling is 700 feet MSL, are you meeting the cloud
clearance for day VFR flight?
Part B: Let's say the ceiling lifts a bit to 1,000 MSL. You would like a little more altitude to maintain glide distance to shore.
If you increase your altitude to 700 MSL, and still remain clear of clouds, are you still legal for day VFR?
The IMC Question of the Month for November is:
When flying IFR and under radar contact, what changes and conditions must pilots report to A TC?
This meeting may not qualify for Wings credit. We're waiting to hear from the FAA.
