Regular Membership
Regular members have full membership privileges in the club, including the ability to vote on club matters at general meetings and access to all club aircraft (with the appropriate checkout). Monthly dues for regular members are $95.
A one-time $2,500 initiation fee is required upon joining. This fee is fully refundable upon termination of membership, subject to the terms outlined in the club’s bylaws.
The initiation fee helps fund the club’s operations, including the acquisition and maintenance of aircraft and equipment. While it does not confer ownership, it ensures the club remains well-capitalized and member-driven.
