Committee
The direction of the LVAC is steered through the Committee of Management elected by the members of the Club. As a member, you are entitled to nominate, if you so desire.
There are also other sub-committees that help organise flying displays, flying competitions, “fly-aways” to other Clubs and other such significant events like the Annual Wings Dinner.
The Latrobe Valley Aero Club also has an active social club that does much to create a happy and friendly atmosphere for all members, be they students or “old hands”.
LVAC Committee meets on the third Tuesday of each month.
