Sundance Flying Club was founded with the idea that people with a common interest
in aviation should be able to enjoy it together.
We are located at the Palo Alto municipal airport (KPAO),
serving the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
Centrally located on the Peninsula, Palo Alto and Sundance Flying Club both
offer excellent year 'round flying with an excellent training
environment under the busy San Francisco Class B airspace.
So whether you're darting off somewhere for that $100 hamburger or
looking to add an instrument or multiengine rating, Sundance is your friendly flying club.
Catering to the beginning and experienced pilot alike, we understand
the Silicon Valley lifestyle. For many of our staff and instructors,
the corporate ladder just didn't go high enough, so we have chosen to
make our flying home here at Sundance. We pride ourselves in maintaining
that "small club" ambiance, but with a "big club" level of experience and service.
OUR GOAL: Provide clean, well maintained airplanes to our members for
safe flying at affordable rates.
We’ve learned, it’s about the flying!!!
Our flight training operation is committed to placing airplane
commanders into the left seat of our airplanes. In the past we’ve
had glitzy offices and a large staff. We found that this method of
operation only made the airplanes less available and more expensive.
To keep member rates as low as possible, we make efficient use of minimum space,
(check out our club “Ready Room” to see what we mean).
Highest quality equipment!
At the Sundance Flying Club we rely on well-developed systems to
keep the club flight operations running smoothly. We’ve upgraded our
fleet with six high performance aircraft and six primary trainers. We also
have our own FAA-certified maintenance facility, staffed by our certified
A&P mechanic and authorized inspector (AI).
Great Availability!
Our member-to-airplane ratio is low enough to supply an airplane
for our members when they want it. Just click on our online
scheduler from any web browser.
Standard Flight Training Syllabus!
Our standard training syllabus provides a comprehensive training
program that teaches pilots procedures that work in any situation.

Sundance Flying Club has established and maintained a UNIQUE
membership agreement. It's essential that our members operate and
care for club airplanes as if each airplane were his or her own.
This UNIQUE agreement has served our club well and has allowed the Sundance
Flying Club to provide a fleet of very clean and well maintained, airplanes
at affordable rates. We welcome new members to our flying family.
