The 50th Anniversary of the International Aerobatic Club
The aerobatic division of the EAA, first called the "Precision Flying Division", was headed by Bill Dodd of Prairie View, Illinois. Its purpose was to promote safety and to be a central point for pilots to join with each other in sharing information. The Precision Flying Division continued until 1969. By the Fall of 1969, Bob Heuer and Don Taylor approached Paul Poberezny about forming a new, formal organization with the EAA structure that went beyond what had previously been done and to begin building membership, new programs, chapters, and competitions. It was to be what the IAC founders called a "grassroots" organization - a part of IAC's culture that has survived to this day.
