About
The Annual Flying Club (AFC) was first introduced in 1962. Through the years, our students and renters have been able to enjoy reduced rental rates as members of this club. The AFC dry rate is $8.00 per hour less than our standard rental rates. Our GOLD CLUB (GFC) offers a reduction of $14.00 per hour. * The GFC was designed for the renter pilot who flies often and makes numerous day or multiple day flights. Many of our student pilots take advantage of the hourly savings in this club. Our Saturday and Sunday morning, 20% rental special, is the only special offered to student pilots and only if they belong to the GFC. Our flight hour minimums for single or multi day trips are greatly reduced for our GFC members. MONTHLY CLUB BUDGET PLAN: In 2013 we introduced an option to pay your club dues monthly. Regardless of the year of membership, you will be charged $30/month plus tax for AFC and $45/mo plus tax for GFC. There is a $25 one-time enrollment fee. When you choose this option, you are committed to a contract for one year. Payment is required for twelve consecutive months regardless of the number of flights you take each month. All club members save ten percent (10%) on most pilot supplies. * Sport Aircraft (LSA's) $3/hr discount on AFC and $6/hr discount on GFC.
