Practice Boxes
Tracy Practice Box
IAC 38 holds an FAA waiver for a practice area immediately east of Tracy Airport. This allows for easier critiquing and practice opportunities for pilots. The box can only be opened by the box manager for the chapter. Critique days are held throughout the year and is made available to IAC 38 members.
New Jeruslaem
New Jerusalem airport is also available for practice under a separate waiver held by IAC 38. Reach out to the President or the Tracy Practice Box Chair for details.
