Complete a Flying 20 Club Membership Application and
submit it to the membership chairman along with
the non-refundable application fee of $50. The
membership chairman's contact information is
listed on the Club
Officers page of this website.
NOTE:
For times when there are no immediate openings
for membership, upon receipt of your application
and fee, the membership chairman will assign you
the next open position on the waiting list.
When your position on the waiting list is called
you will be contacted by the membership chairman at
which time you will have the opportunity to update
your application as necessary.
Your completed application will be reviewed by the
membership chairman and then presented to the
Executive Board for it's consideration and vote. Copies of the
following documents must accompany your application:
The front and back sides of a valid United
States pilot certificate.
The front and back sides of a valid driver's
license.
FAA medical certificate, if current.
Your most recent BFR or equivalent log book
endorsement.
If the Board approves your application for membership,
your payment of a non-refundable $2,000 initiation fee and
$200 background check fee should be provided to the treasurer.
If desired, the initiation fee can be made in two $1000
installments. The first installment is due prior to commencing
any club check rides, and the second installment (if applicable)
will be billed in the invoices for your second month of membership.
After the club's receipt of the initiation fee
as outlined in paragraph 3, you may schedule
your club check-out with one of the approved CFI's.
New members are required to satisfactorily
complete a check-out in each of the club aircraft they
wish to fly with a club-approved CFI. At the discretion
of the CFI, a ground-based review of the differences of the
second Archer may be completed in lieu of an additional check
flight.
The Dakota requires a high performance endorsement
and a check ride with a club-approved CFI.
The checkout endorsement for each airplane shall read
as follows:
This is to certify that I have given and that[insert the
member’s name]holder of certificate[insert the member’s certificate
number] has satisfactorily
completed a Flying 20 Club, Inc. Pilot
Proficiency Flight Check Ride, in aircraft
number [insert aircraft tail number] on
[insert date of flight] [insert Certified Flight Instructor’s signature]
[insert Certified Flight Instructor’s certificate
number] [insert Certified Flight Instructor’s
certificate expiration date].
The endorsement for a review of the differences of the
second Archer shall read as follows:
This is to certify that I have given and that[insert the
member’s name]holder of certificate[insert the member’s certificate
number] has satisfactorily completed a
review of the differences of aircraft number
[insert aircraft tail number] on
[insert date of the review] [insert Certified Flight Instructor’s signature]
[insert Certified Flight Instructor’s certificate
number] [insert Certified Flight Instructor’s
certificate expiration date].
All expenses associated with the check ride are your
sole responsibility, including CFI fees and the cost of
the airplane at the club's current hourly rate.
The content of the airplane checkout is the responsibility of
the individual CFI. Generally, the standards required
will exceed those for Private Pilot certification with
an emphasis on safety and landing proficiency. If your
biennial flight review is not current, a BFR may be
completed with a club-approved flight instructor as
part of the club checkout.
After each club checkout is completed, provide a copy
of the log book endorsement to the membership chairman.
For each approved airplane, you will be provided with
scheduling rights in Schedule Master, the club's on-line
scheduling system, subject to the scheduling rules
described in the
Bylaws.
Finally, upon becoming an active member of the club,
you will be given keys to all of the club's aircraft.
Note that although you will receive keys to all of the
airplanes, you may only fly those airplanes for which
you have been checked out by a club-approved CFI.
