Straightforward costs, a small founding group, and an easy online application.
Two Ways to Get Involved
Not every pilot is ready to join as a flying member right away — and you don't have to be a pilot at all to be part of this community.
Full access to the club aircraft, a vote in club decisions, and everything else on this page below. Requires a Private Pilot certificate or higher.
Apply for Flying MembershipOpen to the general public — no aircraft access or voting rights, but full access to our social events, fly-outs, and educational opportunities. A great way to get to know the club.
Become a Club AssociateWhat It Costs
We've kept our cost structure simple: a one-time buy-in, a flat monthly due, and an hourly wet rate when you fly. No hidden fees.
| Item | Cost | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Membership Buy-In | $1,000 | One-time, due at joining. Includes a one-time membership fee plus your first three months of dues. |
| Monthly Dues | $240 / month | Covers hangar, insurance, and fixed aircraft costs |
| Aircraft Rate (Wet) | $125 / hour | Hobbs time, fuel included. Adjusts periodically with fuel prices. |
We're building a founding group of around 10 members. As the club and fleet grow, dues and rates will be reevaluated to keep costs fair for everyone.
How It Works
Fill out the membership application below with your certificate, ratings, and a bit about your flying background.
We'll follow up to schedule a call or an in-person meet-up at KHFY so you can meet current members, see the aircraft, and ask questions.
New members complete an aircraft checkout with a club-designated flight instructor to confirm familiarity and proficiency in the Cheetah before flying solo.
Once approved and checked out, pay your buy-in, get added to the scheduling system, and you're ready to book your future adventures.
