FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Browse below to find answers to the most common questions about our club. Go through the list we’ve provided, but if anything is still unclear, get in touch and we’ll be happy to assist you.

HOW DOES YOUR FLYING CLUB WORK?

Low Flying Angles has 12 shares or membership spots. Each member owns an equal share of the club which owns N739EZ, our prized 1978 Cessna 172N. Each member owns their share for as long as they choose and may sell their share for whatever price they set. Share prices are set by each individual member and our Board advises members on its equity value only. The club maintains a wait-list of prospective members to facilitate these shares. Recent transactions have ranged around $15,000 per share.

​

Every member receives their own set of keys and is able to schedule flight time using the club's online calendar. Members pay a monthly fixed rate to cover hangar, insurance, annual inspection and AD costs. Members pay an hourly cost for flight time which covers fuel, engine and prop replacement, 50-hour inspections and oil changes as well as unplanned maintenance.

​

As of February 2025 monthly dues are $180 and flight time $145/hour (wet). Flight time billed on tachometer, not hobbs.

Our club is fully reserved for the next engine replacement.

HOW CAN I JOIN LOW FLYING ANGELS?

To be eligible to own a share, you must be a current, licensed pilot with a minimum of 100 hours of PIC time. We have 12 shareholders and while we have no visibility to when a share may come up for sale, we historically have had one to two transactions per year.

Eligible, interested pilots may contact us to join our waiting list, and we allow a small number of interested parties to place a fully refundable $2500 deposit with us to get priority placement on that waitlist.
