Important Announcement on Hire Rates **
At the General Committee Meeting held on Friday 15th
February 2008 it was unanimously agreed flying rates should be adjusted.
Hire rates have been subsidised for many years however the ever rising cost
of fuel has created a perpetual deficit in the Clubs’ accounts.
The Club and the Committee are here to provide
opportunities to novice and maestro in the field of aviation and continue
to honour that principle, however in the real world the Club bills have to
be paid and costs have to be covered.
In order to stay competitive the Club has revised the
Hire rates with effect from 1st April 2008 at a rate that is
still better than any other flying organisation in Kuala Lumpur or indeed
the whole Malaysian Peninsula.
Solo: RM 410.00 per hour
Instructor Fees: RM 100.00 per hour
Instructional Flying: RM 510.00 per hour
