The Pinellas Pilots Association flying club was incorporated and founded in 1998, as a spinoff of Students and Flight Instructors from the once, St. Pete Junior College aviation program.

PPA flying club was established out of the need to minimize the costs associated with renting or owning an aircraft. All pilots must have their Private pilot license in order to join our club. Another great benefit of being a PPA member is sharing of the passion of flight with fellow club members as well as others in the community alike.

The airplane is hangered at "Landings" in our own private hanger at the Saint Petersburg/Clearwater International Airport (KPIE).
