The Club was founded in 1984 at Sywell Aerodrome by Tony Whitlock, Colin Stearn and Robin Norton. It has since developed into the supporting body for all owners, pilots and enthusiasts of vintage Piper aircraft, with well over 300 active members.
In recent years, owners of classic US types other than Pipers have gravitated towards the VPAC and we welcome anyone flying a vintage or classic machine to join our ranks.
