Social Saturdays

Putting the Club back into the Victoria Flying Club

Hungry for some socializing?

If you're not on the VFC's social media, you may have missed out on a phenomenal opportunity to meet other members of the Victoria Flying Club, have some snacks, and learn things to help you in the air: Social Saturday!

On first Saturday of every month, excluding holidays, the VFC hosts a special morning social event called Social Saturday in the VFC Lounge.

Coffee and donuts are provided free of charge, and the VFC often brings in special guests and speakers are brought in to teach interesting and helpful aviation, or holds fun events for the membership! It's a great way to connect with other VFC members, pilots, and be a club again!

On September 9th, Social Saturday will feature Jamie Brown from the YYJ Tower, who will hold an informative chat about tower operations with atteendees. Jamie is new to Victoria, having recently transferred from Edmonton, where he spent 25 years as an IFR controller. His experience and insights will be incredibly useful and informative to aviators both new and old and we hope to see you there!

In June, the VFC Airport Fire Service came in hot and gave a presentation about fire safety.

In May, Plane Perfect Detailing taught us a bit about the basics of detailing your plane.

And who could forget our legendary paper airplane contest back in February?
