School Description
We are primarily a plane rental company set up in a club format. Members pay dues -- hours included, hourly prices and scheduling privileges depend on membership level. Instruction is through approved third-party instructors.

More About Us
We are more of a club than a school. Our rates and terms are set to reflect quality, high levels of maintenence and fairness. We are here to enable pilots to rent exceptional planes after receiving their pilot certificates. We are one of the few places (if not the only place) in the Austin area who rent tailwheel aircraft and a Cirrus SR22.
