Hi there,

I'm in the process of moving to Eugene, OR and I was wondering if
anyone knew of any flying clubs there. The main GA airport seems to be
EUG, the Mahlon Sweet field, but I haven't figured out if there are any
other GA airports w/ rentals and/or clubs nearby.

I called Friendly Air Service at EUG, and their rentals are $91 an hour
wet for a 172, so I'm definately in the market for some savings.
Anyone know?

Thanks!

Check Cresswell and Cottage Grove, too.

I think there may be a glider club in the area... check the "Where to Fly"
section of www.ssa.org

Corvallis isn't an unreasonable distance from Eugene either.
