To those who are not members of the Europa Club yet,
I have found an interesting article on the FAA website which starts with:
"If you have a hobby or favorite activity, no matter how common or unconventional, there is probably a club somewhere out there that caters to that interest. Auto clubs, TV show fan clubs, and book clubs; these are just a few among the myriad organizations that appeal to nearly anything you can imagine. But how about a club that can help save you time, money, and possibly even your life one day? Sound good? If you’re an airman, it most definitely would.
Of course we’re referring to aircraft “type clubs,” which, for decades, have helped aircraft owners and pilots become more in tune with the performance and safety of their machines. In fact, anecdotal data suggest that members of an aircraft type club are less likely to have an accident than their non-member colleagues. If that piques your interest, please read on."
The full article was published in the July-August 2011 issue of the FAA Safety Briefing, pages 26-27: http://www.faa.gov/news/safety%5Fbriefing/2011/media/JulAug2011.pdf
