People who ARE welcome: Our best students, clients & day-trippers always arrive with a unique personality, common sense, work ethic, and see they money they spend as an investment in the club, facility & team. Life long friendships with these individuals are created as well as team pilots for all our excursions. Each of the 40+ members of this club have contributed to the building of this team & facility. Whether we're on a cross-country excursion or just tuning equipment, our knowledge & efforts as a team are essential to a successful adventure as well as all-night partying... No matter how many hours we've flown, we all have much to learn from each other so we highly recommend that you show up with this in mind. Friends & family are always welcome but are required to respect the facility, aircraft & privacy of other pilots.



People who are NOT welcome: This is the most unique & rewarding affiliation in the world. Though it is worth every dime, and regardless of how you pitch it to your wife or banker, we all know it's frivolous & expensive. Don't put yourseft in a position to be frustrated with us because you weren't realistic with the powers that be... We have absolutely no time nor tolerance for those who are ignorant, impatient, unsafe, defacing of our sport, or simply affect our sanity. Don't wheel & deal! Our prices are fair and are tailored to pay for what we offer you. Every dollar you pay goes back into the club & the facility to benefit you. The only people who get good deals are the ones who don't ask. Tight-wads, bitchers, lazy-asses and incompetent people will be better served by our competition.
