About Our Flying Club

The Arizona Cloudbusters Flying Club has been in continuous operation since 1959. We are a club of aviation enthusiasts who have banded together to make flying nice, clean, well maintained airplanes more affordable.

We are located at Chandler Municipal Airport (KCHD) in Chandler, AZ.

Along with currently licensed pilots, we welcome student pilots ready to take to the skies at a cost significantly less than any flight school.

In addition to affordable flying, our club also provides opportunities for pilots to socialize, fly together, participate in and learn about aircraft ownership, and train for additional licenses and ratings.

We currently own and operate a 2001 Cessna 172SP Skyhawk, a 1997 Cessna 182S Skylane, and a 1966 Beechcraft Debonair C33.

We keep the costs of flying down with low monthly membership dues and by adjusting the hourly aircraft rates to stay in line with fuel costs. We operate as a non-profit company so our rates are as low as possible.

Regular membership meetings give pilot-owners time to come together to discuss our current affairs as well as help shape our club's future.

The Arizona Cloudbusters Board of Directors thanks you for visiting our website and looks forward to having you in our club in the near future.
