FAQ

Do I have to be a pilot to join?

For those members that choose to pursue one (or more) of our aircraft roles then almost certainly!

No! A small membership fee is due annually, however most members incur no additional costs during their membership. And yes, that includes time when you'll be flying!

No, we are a senior member squadron. Why not check out our local cadet squadron also at Lunken -  Lunken Cadet Squadron 078)

I have my pilot certificate, what opportunities are there for me?

There are multiple pilot roles available depending on a number of factors related broadly to your experience, ratings and PIC hours. These range from being simply qualified to fly the aircraft through to fully fledged examiners assessing our Mission Pilots.

You're in the Kentucky Wing but are based at Luken?
