Flight Training & Aircraft Rentals

Aircraft Rentals (Non-Flight Training)

  • Single-day rentals involving extended bookings are subject to a minimum charge of four (4) flight hours.
  • Multi-day rentals are subject to a minimum charge of four (4) flight hours per day.
  • These minimum charges apply regardless of actual flight time, including situations where the aircraft is flown for fewer hours or not flown at all due to weather, pilot choice, or any other reason beyond the Edmonton Flying Club’s control.
  • When actual flight time exceeds the applicable minimums, the renter will be charged for the actual flight time flown.
  • For multi-day rentals, the applicable minimum daily charges apply cumulatively for each day of the rental period.
  • The Edmonton Flying Club reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to approve or deny extended or multi-day rentals if such rentals are determined to conflict with the Club’s flight training requirements or operational needs.
