AOPA Offers Aircraft Financing For Flying Clubs

0

Flying clubs purchasing aircraft can now obtain special financing from AOPA, the association announced Wednesday. AOPA Aviation Finance Co. offers four options for start-up clubs and existing clubs shopping for additional aircraft. “Flying clubs offer pilots of all skill levels the benefit of shared aircraft ownership and a ready-made community of like-minded aviators,” said Adam Meredith, president of AOPA Aviation Finance Co. “We’re excited to offer these new financing options to flying clubs, whether it’s just a couple of pilots with a single airplane or hundreds of pilots who fly a variety of aircraft.”

Two of the packages are tailored for start-up clubs, offering 15-year loan terms with interest rates ranging from 5 to 7 percent and down payments from 15 to 30 percent. Existing clubs can apply for a 10-year loan with no personal guarantee and higher down payments required. The financing is part of AOPA’s campaign to encourage pilots to form flying clubs.
