Aircraft
Rental
Whether you're searching for an affordable trainer to start your
aviation training, something more complex to earn a new rating in, or
an SUV with wings to haul friends and family, Phoenix Aviation
has something for every pilot.
We also fill a very unique role
in the Maryland/Pennsylvania/Delaware aviation community, offering
training in tailwheel aircraft as well as aerobatic flight.

Faster aircraft typically cover the same distance in a shorter time;
while the hourly rental rate may be higher, a faster
aircraft may actually save
you money depending on the length of your trip.
To compare your options for the most popular rental aircraft and find
the best price-performance for your intended mission:
-
Select two aircraft and
determine the anticipated cruise speed for each (e.g., a 172 and an
Arrow).
-
Create a flight plan
using a web-based or other automated tool (AOPA Flight
Planner, DUATS/DUAT, Cirrus, Golden Eagle, etc.).
-
Run the flight planner
using your first
aircraft's anticipated cruise speed. Determine the number of minutes it
will take.
-
Run the flight planner
using your second
aircraft's anticipated cruise speed. Determine the number of minutes it
will take.
-
Open this document in
either Microsoft
Excel or in Adobe Acrobat
. Find your first aircraft in the upper row,
then find the number of planned minutes for that
aircraft in the far left column. The cost will be shown at the
intersection of the row and column. (Note that the cost in
includes 5% Maryland sales/use tax which applies to rentals; sales/use
tax does not apply for instructional flights.)
-
Do the same for your
second aircraft.
