Winding City Flyer Price List

The Windy City Flyers' price list contains two different per -hour hour fees for aircraft instruction and rental. Full Club Members fees and times are determined using the aircraft's speedometer. Tariffs for all others are determined using the Hobbs meter of the aircraft. The Hobbs meter reads how long the motor is operating regardless of the motor rpm, while the speedometer reads the number of rpm the prop makes.

Hobbs is only the same as the speedometer when the motor is at full revs. Tachometer will always be smaller than the Hobbs metre for a particular ride. By using tacho ratios, our members make significant savings when hiring aircraft, as the powerplant is operated at low performance during many stages of the aircraft, to include cab driving for take-off, wait for take-off, arrival and take-off, and during the cab back to the car park.

Students can particularly profit from tacho speeds because of the enormous amount of low performance exercise required, which includes low speed airspeed, low speed airspeed and stall work. The Hobbs Meter in our Cessna 172SP, for example, is rotated by 1.0 meters during a one-hour ride.

In the same one-hour trip, however, the speedometer could only turn by 0.7. Hobbs for this plane was $86, the speed for the same plane would only be $67.20. Overall, our members are saving between 20% and 30% on Hobbs and Tacho comparisons - which can lead to hundreds of dollar saving each year!

Whatever your member level, we provide the highest level of flying education to all our learners and prices for instructors are the same whether you are a member or not. Please call us or our offices at 847-808-1188 for the latest aircraft prices....
