RENTAL
In order to rent as pilot in command, you will need to accomplish a checkout with one of our instructors.
The checkout involves an open-book wrtten test concerning aircraft systems as well as operations in Class C
airspace, along with a flight of approximately one hour.
We will also need to make copies of the following documents:

Once you have finished your checkout and retained a copy of our

the airplane for multiple days, we do have a 2.5 hour per day minimum
except by prior arrangement and approval by the Director of Operations.
