FAQ’s
Members receive regular newsletters via email, and our website has a calendar of upcoming events. We also have a members-only section where you can access the latest news and updates.
FWFC offers two levels of membership. Flying Membership requires a one-time membership initiation fee of $300, and then regular dues of $115 (membership dues $75 and member insurance assessment $40) will begin on the first day of the subsequent month. Sim-Only members pay an initiation fee of $100 and pay monthly dues of $25.
No, unfortunately we are unable to pro-rate membership dues or initiation fees. Note: The member initiation fee combines the new member initiation with the monthly dues for the first month or remainder thereof for the month of joining.
We do not offer family membership. Each person logging flight time must be a member of the club.
All billing is done through our online scheduler, Flight Circle. Dues are collected on the 1st of each month. Aircraft rental is paid for at the completion of each flight during check-in. All members must have a valid credit/debit card on file and set up for autopay. All payments must be made via a debit/credit card through Flight Circle and accrue a small service fee of 3.5%. ACH payments will be coming in the near future and will be processed without an added service fee.
Yes, all members must carry a non-owned renters insurance policy which carries a hull coverage of $10,000 to the non-owned aircraft. This insurance is primarily used in the case of hangar rash incidents while moving aircraft in and out of the hangar.
