Accumulated checkride fee is lost if member does not perform thier annual

with the club and fly.

less any outstanding charges owed to the club. An exiting member remains
liable for all dues, labor share, assessments, fees, fines or penalties
until the aircraft equities are sold to a new member.

No. There is an
excellent online reservations service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, accessed from the
World Wide Web. In addition, the same reservation database is accessible from an (800)
