  • Outstanding Spring General Membership meeting featuring AOPA President Craig Fuller!

    April 18, 2011

    Plus One Flyers was among the AOPA e-Pilot top stories for April 22, 2011.  The Plus One Flyers General Membership meeting featuring AOPA President Craig Fuller's exclusive presentation was perhaps the club's best meeting ever, with great food and pilot networking, fun and entertainment for everyone.  AOPA President Fuller did not disappoint with his lively and informative presentation and Q&A session on current issues and AOPA progress in General Aviation, and he blogged about the club the following day.

    About 300 members attended the meeting at the Crownair hangar, leaving standing room only.  Three club airplanes representing a state-of-the-art G1000 C172S trainer, N372TA, an Aspen-equipped C182RG, N133BW, and a Technically-Advanced-Avionics cross-country SR22 airplane, N8148F, were on display and generated great discussions about avionics, checkouts, and trips to be taken.  Flight training luminaries John and Martha King attended and hobnobbed with Plus One Flyers members.  The catered buffet was well received and completely cleaned out by the end of the evening.  Thanks to Crownair for hosting our meeting, and to everyone who attended and made this event possible!

  • Get the Word Out: We Need Airplanes!

    With club airplane demand at an all-time high, particularly for good Piper and Cessna trainers, this might perhaps be the best possible time to lease an airplane to the club at CRQ, SEE, RNM and MYF. To help, we've prepared a kit including a club brochure and example business model spreadsheets, available upon request to qualified prospective airplane owners. In addition to facilitating ownership cost offsets, the club may pay between 80% and 100% of extra wear or damage repairs not already covered by insurance, plus limited downtime revenue losses, through our exclusive Insurance Deductible Plan (IDP); the responsible member reimburses the club for up to 20%, with a maximum of $100 for insurance claims. Contact a club officer for the kit details.
  • PLUS ONE FLYERS GOES MORE GREEN

    Our entire airplane fleet is being equipped with new GATS fuel sampling jars. The GATS jars allow multiple sample collections to be returned to the fuel tank and if used properly also strain out water and contaminants. Help protect our environment by using the GATS fuel sample jars, and be sure to keep them in the airplane!
