Clyde Valley Flyers - Membership Applications

Thank you for your interest in joining Clyde Valley Flyers, you will find that the benefits of membership present extremely good value for money.

The cost of adult membership is currently £35 per annum, in addition to this you will also need SAA insurance which is currently £26 per year and all new memberships are also subject to an additional one off joining fee of £15. Therefore full membership will cost a total of £76 for the first year, and £61 per year thereafter (at current rates).

Junior membership (16 and under) has different rules and rates, so you should contact the treasurer for further details including the price and when it will be due.

Membership will entitle you to unlimited access to our flying site between the hours of dawn to dusk, with the exception of a few 'No Flying Times' published in the Clyde Valley Flyers forum. You will also be entitled to free tuition if you are a student pilot until you successfully complete the SAA Bronze Safety Schedule after which you will be able to fly solo from our facility. The other members of the club will be more than happy to assist you with any problems you may have with building, repairing, maintaining or flying your aircraft at any stage of piloting ability.

Our flying field has a club hut with canteen facilities so you can warm up with a hot drink and a chat, drinks (and occasionally hot food) are very reasonably priced to cover the cost. We also have use of toilet facilities but unfortunately they are closed during the winter months to prevent freezing damage.

The club also arranges various other events such as holidays to The RC Hotel in Corfu, and the upcoming Club Bean feast at the Lynnhurst Hotel, which are open to all members of Clyde Valley Flyers.
