Modern fleet, modern avionics: why we don't fly tired airframes

Most rental lines in the Metroplex are built on airframes that were already old when today's instructors were students. That works, right up until it doesn't: cancelled lessons, inoperative equipment placards, and avionics that teach habits you'll have to unlearn.

What we run and why

• N538J "Jab" — Jabiru J170, available now. Light sport, efficient, and the lowest-cost path to the left seat at KDTO.
• N94RS and N36PL — Cirrus SR20-G2, coming soon. Modern avionics, side-yoke handling, and a genuine cross-country platform.
• A deliberately small fleet, so every aircraft gets attention instead of averaging out across a large line.

Maintenance you can see

Every aircraft page in the member portal shows inspection status, hours remaining to the next 100-hour or annual, installed equipment, and current weight and balance data — plus the POH and digitized airframe, engine, and propeller logbooks. Squawks are reported from the dispatch sheet at check-in, with photos, and an aircraft with an airworthiness-affecting squawk is grounded automatically rather than quietly rented to the next member.

Modern. Advanced. Safe.

That's the whole operating thesis — modern aircraft, modern avionics, straightforward wet rates, and records that hold up to scrutiny. If you expect better than what most rental lines offer, that's who we built this club for.
