Member news!!

Thanks to the gas prices dropping a bit, we are able to roll back the per-hour cost of our planes a bit! Please go to the website for current pricing…..The Cessna 152 is now back on-line with a new seats, seat belts and carpet. Yes, by mid-October we will have a Diamond Eclipse for rent with a special check out rate of buy one hour and get one FREE!! Not only a great Private or Instrument trainer, the 125 HP Eclipse will cruise at 135 knots! For not much more than the cost of renting the C-172 you can fly one of the most popular and innovative aircraft available, complete with a Garmin 430!.....  The Local EAA Chapter 95 is hosting a YOUNG EAGLES day on October 14th, with an EAA picnic to follow. They are always in need of pilots willing to donate their time and aircraft to show kids the fun of flying. If you cannot be there that day, please consider joining and supporting Chapter 95!
