Welcome to the Penn Yan Flying Club
Affordable Aircraft, Flight Training and more!
The Penn Yan Flying Club located in Penn Yan,
NY has been in continuous operation since 1939.
It exists to provide inexpensive flying for its
membership and to further the cause of General
Aviation in the Club's extended community by
providing both aircraft and flight training for
current and future pilots.
We provide safe, inexpensive
flying and flight training services
to our members in aircraft ranging from the J-3
Cub to a Cirrus SR 20
[view more].
Our Certified Flight Instructors
(CFI's) provide checkout and
training for Cessna, Cirrus and
Piper aircraft. Instructors in club
aircraft must, in addition to having
PYFC approval, be active members and
employees of PYFC.
Don't wait! Earn your
private
pilot certificate or your
instrument or commercial rating by
contacting us today or make
arrangements to visit our club.
Next Meeting: June 20,

It's never to early to
think about our July4th - Fly-in /
Drive-in Breakfast!
The Penn Yan Flying Club

in 2012 and we are hoping
for the same or better this
year.
Besides good food, there
will be music,
airplane and helicopter

Why Join Us? We make it
worth the trip!
Freedom from the
Hobbs-meter
Flight time on our
aircraft is tach time, not
Hobbs time as at most FBOs.
That means that practicing
touch-and-gos is downright
inexpensive, and holding
short of the runway for
extended periods is almost
free! And because the Penn
Yan Flying Club is a
non-profit organization, our
hourly rates will make you
smile - $51/hr for a J-3
Cub, $73/hr for a Cessna
150, $91/hr for the Cessna
172 or Piper PA-180 and
$172/hr for the Cirrus. The
hourly rate includes fuel
and oil. (Compare our rates
with those at any local
flight school or FBO!)
No Hassle with Daily
Minimums
If you've ever refrained
from taking a week-long
flying trip because you
wouldn't be able to cover
the rental hour minimums
during that week at another
establishment, the Penn Yan
Flying Club is for you! We
have no daily minimums, so
go ahead and take that
week-long trip!
Convenient Scheduling
and Billing
Our airplanes are based
on the northwest side of the
Penn Yan Airport. You can
schedule airplanes 24 hours
a day on our convenient,
password-protected
reservation web site.
When you come to the airport
to fly, there's no need to
bring your checkbook ---
we'll send you a bill every
month and charge your credit
card directly. And when you
buy fuel or oil at another
airport, just send in the
receipt with your monthly
payment and we'll credit
your account at our current
re-imbursement price.
Low Initiation
Fee
Our Active Member (flying
member) initiation fee is
now: Only $300!
This is now the lowest
initiation fee for a flying
club in the area. Just
another way we make it worth
the trip!
