Fly With Us

Experience the Wonder of Pure Flight

The cost of learning to fly can be daunting for those getting started in aviation, but PGC is a friendly AND cost-effective place to learn to fly. Annually, our members pay $1190 in dues plus the cost of each tow. The price per tow depends on the altitude requested. Currently, tow fees average $35. That's it! There is no plane rental and no instructor fee. New to PGC? New members also pay a refundable entrance bond of $100 plus a one-time new member fee of $700 which is billed quarterly ($175/quarter) over your first year. The entrance bond is refunded if you leave the club in good financial standing. Are you a young student pilot* or part of a full-price PGC member's family? If so, your annual dues for full privileges are reduced to $780/per year and your bond is $60. The new member fee still applies. Our membership coordinator is available to answer any questions you might have on dues or joining PGC!

*Student Pilots are full-time students, 22 years of age or younger.
