==History==
==History==
This predecessor of McGill Students' Flying Club (MSFC) was the Flying and Navigation Club. Founded in the 1950s, it revolved around prospective navigators sharing and practicing various navigational techniques. The VP Clubs of EUS, Harold Day, envisioned the idea of a flying club after discovering the 1950s records, and the MSFC was re-founded at the McGill Engineering Undergraduate Society (EUS) in March of 2012 by Farzan Subhani, Guy Haddad, Joe Hayek, Kari Rosteck, Sebastien Mezeret, and Salman Hashmi (listed in alphabetical order). Since the club's revival, our Co-Presidents Lauren Nagel, Ali Najmaldin, and Madison Santos have seen the Club through the expansion of partnerships and the challenges of COVID-19 to the present the club as you see it today.
