Aviation Enthusiasts

Airheads is a non-profit social club (501 c-7) based in Martinsburg, WV (KMRB). Our mission is to provide safe and affordable access to aviation to anyone who is interested. We have a wide variety of pilots in our community from the humble student seeking to complete their first solo, to the experienced airline captain. Membership in the Airheads Flying is more than simply renting airplanes. We provide social events, BBQs, FAA WINGS seminars, Guest speakers, and more! Each member is given opportunities to support the mission of the club and board positions are rotated yearly.

A Small But Expanding Fleet

Currently our club operates a single 1968 Cessna 172I. Its a solid time builder with a modern avionics panel perfect for pilots looking to get their instrument rating and beyond. As the club grows we seek to add additional aircraft to our fleet. Reach out to come see the plane in person.

Our Pricing

Flying clubs offer the most cost effective access to aircraft, making aviation more accessible to individuals. The pricing structure of a flying club is designed to accommodate various budgets and needs including fixed and variable costs. Here is a description of our fees:

  1. Membership Fee: This one time non-refundable fee is the cost to become a member of the club.
  2. Monthly Fee: As a club we have fixed costs that need to be paid each month regardless if the plane flies. These fees include hangar rental, insurance, and annual inspection fees. Our monthly fee covers those fixed costs.
  3. Hourly Rate: For each hour that the plane flies we put away money for planned maintenance expenses such as oil changes, tires, brakes, engine, prop, and other consumables parts of the aircraft. Hourly fees cover these variable costs.
