Welcome to Paramus Flying Club

Take-off into a Sustainable Future: Fly a Jet-A Cessna 182

Meet our newest member in the flying club fleet: a low consumption, high performance Diesel/Jet-A Cessna 182. At 7 gallons per hour you will be able to travel at a gas mileage of a car and afford your favorite hobby for a long time to come. PFC took a decision to upgrade the fleet with an SMA Diesel engine fitted Cessna 182. This addition will complement our 2 C172s (180HP) and a C182 RG with an extremely economical high performance aircraft consuming almost half of a comparable 100LL model. Think about it, with Paramus Flying Club you can be sure to enjoy flying in the future - economically, safely and in style. Oh, did we mention that all aircraft are GPS Garmin 430 equipped? Membership is limited but we encourage new member applications as spots are opening up periodically.

4 Planes at 2 Airports - reachable by public transport

Flying Club Map
Paramus Flying Club (PFC) operates 4 airplanes out of 2 different airports in the NYC Metro area, Linden (LDJ) and Caldwell / Essex County (CDW) - airplanes rotate across airports (2 planes per airport) over time to give every member equal access to different aircraft types. The "clubhouse" is in Teterboro at the New Jersey Aviation Hall of Fame where we hold our meetings. All locations are reachable by public transport. Linden is the closest general aviation airport to Manhattan and is easy reachable by public transport (New Jersey Transit + $5 taxi). Caldwell is a towered class D airport well situated for Jersey residents and NYC members alike. Caldwell can also be reached by bus with a 15 min. walk. Both airports have fuel service and facilities [Map of PFC locations]
