FlyCarolina's flying club was founded in 1996 to provide pilots an affordable alternative to aircraft ownership and a variety of aircraft types for all budgets and skill levels. Today, FlyCarolina has become one of the largest flying clubs in America with five airport locations, twenty-five aircraft, two flight-simulators and over 200 members strong. We encourage our members to take our club aircraft on long weekend getaways, multi-day vacations and business trips. We don’t just help people learn to fly we assist them throughout their aviation journey and provide our members the freedom of private aviation without the headaches and high cost of ownership or uncertainty of a partnership.
