flying clubs in Charleston, SC
Hello:
It is possible that I move to Charleston, SC, and I am looking for my flying options. I have about 350 hours in Cessnas. If I move to Charleston, I'd like to become a member of a flying club in the area, as I like to take care of airplanes treat them well, and assist in maintenance. I don't mind renting from an FBO either, but I'd rather fly with a flying club. Which flying clubs or FBOs who rent airplanes can be found in either Charleston Executive of East Cooper airports? thanks guillermo |

This is not exactly where you were looking at, but.
But I have rented from Moncks Corner (Berkeley County Airport) up to the north about 30 miles (I have family there). The last time I rented they had a later model 172 180hp with full King Silver Crown IFR panel (GPS, dual 155's, DME) and at the time they were reasonably priced. Its been about 3-4 years since I rented, but I swing by every year. This FBO/Rental appears to be a county run or county franchised operation, and appears stable. The only thing I DIDNT like was doing a checkout they way this guy gave me one: slow flight for damn near an hour at 1000 AGL or less.. At the time I was a 100-150 hr PP, and I wasn't very comfortable that slow and low. Now that I think of it, Im STILL dont like that very much.. but I digress. Just thought I'd throw that in there in case you do something like move to Goose Creek, Moncks Corner or North Charleston. Unfortunately I cannot claim to have any knowledge of Johns Island/Charleston Exec other than I drove by it for the first time last Xmas. Good luck.
