The FAA Flying Club, Washington, DC, was organized in 1962 “…as a nonprofit corporation in order to stimulate and encourage interest in aviation, to advance the knowledge of its members in aviation and aviation related subjects, to sustain and improve the proficiency of its members in flying, to provide the opportunity for its members to fly aircraft economically and conveniently…”
The original membership was geared toward government employees and their families. The current focus is on the general aviation community in an effort to promote aviation safety and wider participation. Therefore, membership in the Club is open to individuals as the Board of Directors may determine. We truly welcome new members. Call or Email us today. We welcome students and will gladly recommend a Club member instructor, although you can use your own instructor, subject to a Club checkout.
The FAA Flying Club currently owns a 1976 Piper Warrior (PA28-150) with the 180hp “Bold Warrior” upgraded engine, a high performance 1968 Piper Cherokee 235 with a 235hp engine, and a 1968 Piper Warrior (PA28-180) with a 180 hp engine. The aircraft are based at Manassas Regional Airport (KHEF) on the east side of the field in Manassas, VA.
