Introduction

At Advantage Aviation, we pride ourselves in providing the best flying club experience in the Bay Area. We invite prospective new members to check out our facilities and those of other clubs in the area, and you’ll quickly see why we are consistently considered the best. Here are a few of the reasons:

1) Best Facilities

From the moment you step through the door, you’ll appreciate the difference at Advantage Aviation. Our clubhouse is well appointed, with a comfortable waiting area including sumptuous leather seating, wide screen TV, and a fully staffed reception desk during normal operating hours. This provides a welcoming experience for you and your guests, and creates a first impression that you will not find elsewhere – especially important if you are seeking to impress a guest, or provide a confidence-inspiring environment for a nervous passenger!

Stepping further into the club, you will find modern computer facilities for pre-flight planning, a number of training rooms equipped with state-of-the-art simulator and  AV equipment, a crew kitchen, and clean restrooms on-site.

Finally, when you are ready to depart, step outside to the parking apron and find your aircraft steps from the clubhouse – no more hikes to the furthest outreaches of the airfield!

2) Newest Fleet

Advantage Aviation proudly offers the newest fleet of rental aircraft in the Bay Area. Many of our aircraft are equipped with G1000 glass-cockpit avionics, as well as a selection of newer aircraft with traditional six-pack equipment. We have a variety of training aircraft (C-152/C-172/PA-28), as well as more versatile and higher performance planes such as Cessna 182T and Mooney M20 aircraft for those longer trips.

3) In-house Maintenance

Advantage Aviation Maintenance is our own in-house maintenance facility – servicing our own fleet, and also available for private aircraft owners too. By maintaining all our aircraft in-house, we provide our members with higher availability, our aircraft owners benefit from higher up-time, and everyone enjoys the piece of mind and security of knowing that our fleet is meticulously maintained by a staff that knows each aircraft well and are dedicated to operating the safest fleet possible.

4) Professional Instructors & Staff

The staff at Advantage Aviation are exceptional. You will find a fully-staffed reception area ready to provide assistance for you and your guests during normal operating hours. We also have some of the finest full-time and part-time instructors in the area. Instructors at Advantage Aviation are career instructors, focused on teaching safe flying skill to pilots. We do not employ “time-builders” looking to instruct as a way of building hours for a commercial pilot position.

5) 24/7 Access

All of our aircraft scheduling is available 27/4. We have an automated dispatch system which allows our members instant access to our fleet of aircraft, even out of hours. Additionally, all members gain round-the-clock access to the clubhouse and all facilities, enabling you to book aircraft and fly on your schedule.

6) Competitive Rates

For all this, you would expect to have to pay a premium for membership and aircraft rental. Not so! You will find our member dues are in line with other clubs in the area, and our aircraft rental rates are also competitive. So then the question becomes: Why wouldn’t you choose Advantage Aviation?
