Availability

With an online scheduler and liberal booking policies, you can easily book a plane for the weekend or for a short practice flight.

With three planes and a limited membership it is rare to not have an aircraft available for use.


Aircraft

The club has a Cessna 172 and two Piper Archers. All aircraft are IFR capable, equipped with Garmin 430s or 530s, 406 MHz ELT, and ADS-B.

All aircraft are maintained by licensed mechanics under the direction of the Chief Maintenance Officer. Our goal is to keep the aircraft in first class condition with minimal down time and low maintenance costs, thus assuring maximum availability and safety to its members.
