Dubois aviation aircraft

Du Bois Aviation operates six aircraft, one Cessna 150, three Piper Cherokee's, one Mooney Mark-20B and a Piper Seneca II.

We own our aircraft and take great measures to maintain them to FAA standards. The interiors are clean and un-torn, everthing works, no inoperative instruments. Our aircraft are also hangared at all times and washed regularly.

In comparison to other flight schools you may visit, you will find our aircraft to be in "cherry" condition.

Du Bois Aviation does NOT have a fuel surcharge.

What is a fuel surcharge?

Most flight schools base their rental rates on a set fuel price. If the fuel price goes up during your training you pay the difference. DuBois Aviation does NOT do this. Be sure to check with your school for more information.

If your renting bring the following information:

Pilot Certificate

Medical Certificate

Pilot Log Book

Photo I.D. or U.S. Passport

You will also need to be checked out in our aircraft by one of our instructors. This typically takes 1-2 hours.
