Being a member of T-Craft Aero Club is an affordable way to enjoy your love of flying whether you are a student or already have your certificate. There are three basic charges: a membership fee, monthly dues and hourly flying time.

Membership Fees

Membership fees are a one-time charge when you join the club. In the event you leave the club, your membership fee will be returned less 25%, provided you have been with the club for a minimum of two years.

Class I Membership - $800

Class I membership entitles the club member to fly the Cessna 152 and the club's Cessna 172 aircraft. This membership is designed for the student pilot and for pilots who do not want to use a Cessna 182. All new members must receive a checkout in each model of aircraft they fly with a club-approved instructor.

Class II Membership - $1,200

Class II membership entitles the club member to fly any of the club aircraft. Class I members upgrading to the Cessna 182's are required to upgrade to Class II, have a minimum of 100 hours of total time PIC, and spend a receive a minimum of 5 hours check-out time with a club-approved instructor.

Monthly Dues

Each member pays a monthly dues of $60 that covers the club's fixed costs, which includes flying/aircraft insurance. In addition, a minimum flight charge of $70 is assessed. The flying charge will be credited towards any flight made during that month. This is the club's way of encouraging all members to fly at least a minimum each month. If a member does not fly during the month, they forfeit the $70 flying credit. The minimum a member will pay is $130 per month ($60 dues + $70 flight charge). Members are billed monthly for dues and total flying charges.
