About
Flying Javelina Aero-Club is a small group of like-minded pilots, looking to own planes and have high-access for trips, but wanting to share the cost of ownership. Fixed costs like hangar, insurance, subscriptions, and maintenance -- they all add up! We also believe there is wisdom in pilots grouping together to improve our skills and safety. Most of the group are family fliers, trusting the equipment with the lives of the pilots and the families they love. Equity 501(c)(7) non-profit flying club for those who want to be able to fly more and share in aircraft ownership. Currently has a PA-32-300
