In my club it’s a yearly fee of about €370. Each 4-seater (C172R GTN650, C172S G1000, PA28-181 GNS430, all IFR with A/P) is €150/flight hr, wet.
Minimum hours: If you book the aircraft more than half a day in June-August, there is a minimum flight time of 1.5 hr/day.
Maximum booking period is 7 days, except for one aircraft primarily used for training where it is 24 hours. Exemptions possible by application to the club board.
There are no limitations on how/what/where you can fly except what the regulations and insurance conditions say.
No landing fees at the home airfield. The aircraft have season cards for free landing at most state-owned and many private airports.
At Inverness, there’s a £95 per annum membership charge. The Pa38 is £133, the Pa28 is £155 per hour. Charged 10 minutes more than take-off to land time, so no problem with ATC hold-ups.. Includes all landings at Inverness.
Despite the membership charge, Highland Aviation is an FBO, and the “Club”, which does organise events, is not involved in operations. Thank God.
