What is a flying club?
A flying club is an organisation that allows its members to pursue flying activities, usually by renting aircraft to them (more details). Flying clubs come in many different types and sizes. Some even think a few pilots sharing a plane and expenses is a flying club, but in general that is considered a partnership. Flying clubs are generally larger than a few pilots and one plane, usually dozens of pilots and a few planes (like CCF), sometimes hundreds of pilots and dozens of planes. Some flying clubs are non-equity based (you don’t own the planes) and some are equity based (you owe a share in the planes), like CCF.
