AIRPORT: Ann Arbor CITY: Ann Arbor, MI VISITED: 5/22/07 COMMENTS: Nice new FBO, with very reasonable rates. Cheapest Arrow and Duchess I've been able to find in the state. Fleet: 2 C150's, $66/hour wet. 1 172, and 1 Cherokee 140, $85/hour wet. Piper Arrow, $113/hour wet. Turbocharged C182, with G1000, $150/hour wet. Beech Duchess, $185/hour wet. Flight instructors, $40/hour I've only seen the Arrow and Duchess, both seemed well maintained, and the interior of the Arrow is in really good condition. Also, the Arrow has working electric trim, and roll/heading autopilot. They offer a Garmin 396 color handheld GPS, with XM weather datalink, for $10 per rental. Overall good FBO, nice feel, friendly people. REVIEWER: detpilot@msn.com ![]()
AIRPORT: Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International CITY: Kalamazoo, MI VISITED: 5/22/07 COMMENTS: 2 newer C172R's, both with IFR certified GPS and autopilot, and one with an HSI, $115/hour wet. 1 older 172M, $100/hour wet. One Piper Arrow with Garmin 430, $140/hour wet. Offer accelerated CFI and CFII courses. Friendly staff, co-located with a 24 hour Duncan, makes after hour rentals a breeze. C172R's are a bit pricey, but worth it for IFR trips. REVIEWER: detpilot@msn.com ![]()
AIRPORT: Padgham Field (35D) CITY: Allegan, MI VISITED: 5/24/07 COMMENTS: Fleet consists of 2 Warriors ($90/hour wet), a Cherokee 180 ($95/hour), 2 150's ($67/hour), a 172 ($90/hour), an Arrow ($120/hour), and a Seneca (Down for repairs, $229/hour wet). The aircraft are old, maint. could be better. The arrow is down often, the seneca will be down for a few months. The seneca has a GPS, one warrior has a Loran. They also run a paint shop which gets pretty good reviews. REVIEWER: detpilot@msn.com ![]()
