The Board member participating in the decision may not be the pilot who is requesting the extension
E. Members are required to maintain currency. No member may act as PIC of a Club aircraft unless that member has logged as PIC at least 3 takeoffs and landings within the previous 90 days in an airplane. Additionally, no member may act as PIC of a Club Diamond DA40 unless that member has logged at least 3 takeoffs and landings within the previous 90 days in a Diamond DA40. Members whose currency has lapsed under this rule must fly with a CFI in any airplane before acting as PIC of a Club aircraft. Note this does not require a formal review or CFI checkout.
4. Flight Review. To operate a Club aircraft, each pilot must have fulfilled the Flight review requirement required by the FARs.
5. Night Operations. To operate a Club aircraft at night, each pilot must have fulfilled and be current with the night flight requirements established by the FARs.

7. Chief Pilot. The Club’s Chief Pilot shall be a CFI designated by the Board, who shall have authority to designate other CFI rated check pilots, subject to approval by the Board.
III. AIRCRAFT OPERATION
1. Pilot-in-Command:
A. Only a Club member who (i) is in good standing in terms of payments owed to the Club, (ii) has satisfactorily completed required proficiency checks, and (iii) has met the experience requirements for the type of plane and flight to be conducted may act as pilot-in-command of a Club aircraft; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing a Club-approved CFI may act as pilot-in-command and provide dual instruction to a Club member in a Club aircraft.
B. Subject to paragraph III.2 below, the pilot-in-command shall occupy the left front seat of the airplane.
2. Right Front Seat Operations. A Club member may operate Club airplanes from the right front seat if the member is accompanied in the left front seat by a Club-approved CFI or Club member who is current in the model aircraft being flown and (ii) all takeoffs and landings are performed by the CFI or the Club member in the left seat unless the member has been approved for right front seat operations by a Club-approved CFI for the model aircraft to be flown. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any flight which is planned for instrument flight rule operations, without regard to actual weather, must be conducted from the left seat, unless the pilot is accompanied by a Club-approved CFII.
3. Preflight. Prior to flight, all aircraft must be inspected as provided in the pilot’s operating manual for such aircraft. The pilot-in-command is encouraged to review previous pages of the aircraft’s logs and squawk book (including any squawks noted on Schedulemaster or any other place designated by the Board). Satisfactory repairs must be completed before flight to any equipment or to alleviate any malfunctions or squawks noted in the aircraft’s logs and/or on Schedulemaster or such other place designated by the Board if the aircraft may not be operated in a safe manner because of an equipment problem or malfunction.
4. Landings. Except in an emergency or as provided in Schedule 3 hereto, Club aircraft may only be landed on paved runways at airports included in the official Flight Supplement or foreign equivalent to such publication, provided however, that landings on a paved runway at a private airport listed on a sectional chart may be made with the permission of the owner and/or operator of such airport.
5. Accident, Damage, Malfunction Reports. Club members are required (i) to record (with necessary details) all accidents, damages, incidents, equipment failures and malfunctions in the squawk book (or the squawk module on Schedulemaster, or in such other fashion designated by the Board) for the applicable Club aircraft; (ii) to notify the plane captain or plane lieutenant of such matters; and (iii) to report all accidents, damages or other incidents directly to the Club President or to a member of the Board. Equipment malfunctions and items in need of maintenance should be reported to the plane captain or lieutenant as quickly as is practicable.

B. The tach times, oil consumption and squawks are to be entered into Schedulemaster as soon after the flight as practicable.
C. If a dangerous condition exists, a note shall be attached to the yoke of the aircraft and the aircraft captain or lieutenant responsible for the aircraft must be notified immediately. If the aircraft captain or lieutenant cannot be reached, the Club member must contact the Chief Maintenance Officer or one of the Board members.
7. Loading and Unloading. Passengers are not allowed to embark or disembark while the aircraft engine is running.
8. Cold weather flying. On the first flight of the day if the outside temperature is thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit (32F / 0C) or lower, or the outside temperature has been at or below twenty degrees Fahrenheit (20F / -7C) for more than 2 hours within 12-hours the preceding the flight, Club aircraft may not be operated unless suitable pre-heating procedures are used. The cost of such pre-heating procedures is to be borne by the member using the aircraft personally.
A. Preheat Conformation. A member must confirm that the preheat was successful, by confirming that the rocker covers and the crank case are warm to the touch and that oil is flowing freely from the dipstick.
B. Use of a heated hangar. If a member chooses to preheat using a heated hangar, the aircraft must be in the hangar for at least 8-hours prior to the flight.
C. Recommendation. If a member has the time and the resources, the Club requests, but does not require, that the member use a heated hangar.
9. No Smoking. No smoking is allowed in Club aircraft at any time.
IV. BOOKING AND SCHEDULING
1. Booking. An aircraft may not be flown without a booking first having been made with the Club’s scheduling service.
2. Booking Rules. In order to allow Club members to utilize Club aircraft as much as possible in a manner which insures just and fair availability for all members, the following rules for booking Club aircraft are to be followed:
A. Booking Duration Limit: Unless permission is otherwise given in advance by the Board, extended cross country flights are limited to 12 days and should not infringe upon more than one weekend. A weekend is defined in this paragraph as Saturday 0001 to Sunday 2359.
B. Loss of Booking Due to Lateness: If a member cannot arrive on time for a flight, the booking must be rescheduled or canceled with the scheduling service. A member arriving over 45 minutes late forfeits a booking unless it is overnight reservation (i.e., booking includes entire 9pm. through 6am period). Overnight bookings are forfeited after two hours, provided that the holder of an overnight reservation may extend this 2-hour period by notifying the Club’s membership that they need additional time prior to their flight via an electronic delivery method approved by the Board with email and/or WhatsApp currently being acceptable. Prior to taking an aircraft due to a forfeited reservation, a member should verify that there is no stand-by reservation in the system that would conflict with their use of the aircraft and attempt to contact the holder of the forfeited reservation to verify that they will not be using the aircraft.
C. Number of Bookings: All members will be allowed 4 points for bookings. All bookings 4 hours and less are equal to 1 point, all bookings more than 4 hours will be equal to 2 points. In addition to the 4 points system of bookings, members may have a same day booking for 0 points that does not extend beyond the current day. A compassion or angel flight booking for 0 points will only be allowed weekdays Monday 0000 hours – 2400 hours Friday. Each member may only have a single 0 point compassion or angel flight booking on the schedule at a time. A compassion or angel flight booking must be made through and approved by the Board. A compassion flight or angel flight is defined as a charitable flight by a Club on behalf of a recognized organization that sponsors this type of flight.
D. Circumvention of Booking Rules: Once an aircraft returns to its home base, the reservation should be updated to show that it has ended, unless the Club member will be using the aircraft again within 2 hours. Furthermore, landing at an airport 50 nautical miles or less from the aircraft’s home base and keeping such aircraft there overnight is not allowed unless prior Board approval is obtained. The intent of this provision is to prevent Club members from monopolizing the use of any aircraft by booking the aircraft for multiple days and incurring only 2 points for the booking under Section IV.C.2 above when they should be using multiple 1-point bookings under such rule. Such behavior keeps other Club members from using the aircraft when they otherwise would be available and goes against the intent of these rules.
E. Monthly Club Flights: Unless the Board selects an alternative time or decides to release the planes, on the Sunday following the monthly general meeting of the Club, all Club aircraft are reserved for a Club activity. If the aircraft will not be used for a Club activity, the Activity Chairman, President or a Club officer will release the aircraft. The monthly Club flights may occasionally be overnight flights requiring the Club aircraft to be reserved for two days or may occur on days other than the aforementioned Sunday.
F. Deviation from Bookings Rules: Requests for scheduling arrangements in variance with these bookings rules should be made to a Board member, who shall present them to the entire Board for approval.
3. Cancellation of Bookings. A booking should be canceled as soon as a Club member is aware for whatever reason (including IFR or marginal VFR weather) that the Club Member will not be able to utilize the Club aircraft that he has booked. In the event an aircraft returns to its home base more than 2 hours prior to the time for which it was booked, the booking should be updated to reflect that the plane is available for use by other Club members.
4. Alternate Bookings. In the event a Club aircraft is booked at a time that a Club member wishes to use the aircraft, the Club member may use Schedulemaster to book a standby schedule or request to be notified via email if the aircraft becomes available.
5. Return to Home Base. All flights should return to the home base by the end of the time for which the aircraft was booked. If poor weather or unavoidable factors prevent a flight from returning on time, a Club officer must be called and given: (i) the aircraft’s location, (ii) a telephone number at which the Club member can be reached, and (iii) the expected time of return. The Club member shall also ascertain from the schedule the Club’s members whose bookings will be affected by the delay in return and the Club member shall telephone such members to advise them of the delay. If the aircraft is not booked until the expected time of return, the booking should be extended to such time.
6. Aircraft Left Away from Home Base. A Club member who must leave a Club aircraft at an airport that is not its home base is financially responsible for the return of the aircraft to its home base as soon as conditions permit. The aircraft must be left correctly tied down or hangered at all times while away from its home base. For the sake of clarity, if an aircraft is left at a location that is not its home base and is airworthy at that location for more than two weeks, the Board may take whatever action it deems necessary to safeguard and return the aircraft, including but not limited to hiring a ferry pilot or company, and the Club member who left the aircraft at such location shall be financially responsible for the full cost of returning the aircraft up to an amount of $2,500, in addition to any other charges the Club may impose. The Board may make exceptions to this rule and the financial allocation of the cost of returning the aircraft in its discretion.
7. Cross Country Operation by New Members. During the first ninety days of membership in the Club, a Club member may not fly a Club aircraft to an airport which is more than 300 nautical miles from the aircraft’s home base, unless a waiver is obtained from the Board.
8. Grounding. Any two of the Club’s officers and members of its Board may ground a Club member from using Club aircraft if they believe the Club member has operated an aircraft in an unsafe manner. A Club member who is grounded may request that the Club Safety Board conduct an investigation as provided in the Club’s By-Laws and a Safety Board meeting will be held within 15 days to determine whether such grounding was warranted. Whatever the outcome, the member is not relieved of any financial responsibilities as described in the Club’s Bylaws.
V. FINANCIAL
1. Payment of Dues and Charges. Monthly dues and charges for flying time shall be paid within fifteen (15) days after billing.
2. Delinquency. Any Club member who has failed to pay any monies due the Club within sixty (60) days after such monies are due shall be considered a delinquent member and shall be prohibited from flying Club aircraft and may incur late fees as set by the Board.
3. Fees. All landing and parking fees are to be paid personally, if possible, by a Club member at the time of occurrence.
4. Fuel Charges. The Club credit cards should be used whenever possible to pay for fuel. If it is necessary to pay for fuel with a member’s own funds, members should submit the receipt to the finance team via flyingclub.org/expense in order to receive a credit to their account.
VI. STUDENT PILOT MEMBERS
1. The Board may, at its discretion and subject to availability of Club Approved CFIs, admit student pilots (those without a valid Private Pilot Certificate) for membership.
2. Requirements for Student Pilot Membership:
A. All candidates for student pilot membership will be required to go through the normal application and interview procedure for membership. Prior to applying for membership to the Club as a student pilot, the candidate must possess a valid Third Class Medical Certificate.
B. All new student pilot members shall have a Club Approved CFI who is responsible for all aspects of that student pilot member’s training (Primary CFI), including, but not limited to, ensuring full compliance with all regulatory and record keeping requirements for pilot training under Part 61, and any other applicable regulations.
3. Training requirements:
A. The student pilot member’s proficiency shall be evaluated by a second Club Approved CFI, who is not the member’s Primary CFI, prior to: a) the first solo flight, and; b) the first solo cross country flight.
B. Student pilot members may train with an appropriately rated and Club Approved CFI on any of the Club aircraft. However, any solo flights, including the private pilot check ride, done by the student pilot members will be restricted to Club aircraft specifically designated for that purpose.
4. Rights and responsibilities:
A. All rights and responsibilities of full membership specified in the Club By-Laws and Operating Rules and Procedures apply to student pilot members.
B. Upon successfully receiving the Private Pilot Certificate, the student pilot member will continue as a full member of the Club without requiring further action on the part of the member or the Club.
