If you're an active flier with current MAAC Membership, just come to our field, pay the Daily Facility Charge ($10) and fly with us!
Don't worry too much! Our yearly membership dues cost less than a typical single round of golf,
joining MAAC is easily completed online and confers benefits beyond merely insurance,
Transport Canada's Pilot Certificate exam is open book and our members will be happy to assist in any way they can,
and our flight review process only requires that you have the competency to operate your aircraft safely.
And if you don't yet know how to fly, don't worry about that, either! We currently have five active instructors!
Training is included in your membership and sessions are held regularly – commonly every week, sometimes multiple times a week –
depending on demand. We try to accommodate your needs and so training times are reasonably flexible. You can only make it out to the field on Wednesday mornings? Or Sunday afternoons? Just let us know and we will accommodate that as best we can.
