Welcome
The Cascade Flyers is a private non-profit aviation club flying out of Paine Field in Everett, Washington. The club is limited to a maximum of 30 members and operates two well maintained aircraft, a Skyhawk (C172) and a Skylane (C182).



Our Community
The Cascade Flyers consists of 30 members, each pilot has a minimum of 200 total hours of flight time or an instrument rating. Members purchase an equity share in the aircraft and pay a low monthly dues to cover fixed costs. Members benefit, not only from easily-available aircraft and coverage under the club insurance policy, but also the camaraderie of fellow pilots ranging in experience from VFR only private pilots to ATPs.

David D.
Member of Cascade Flyers: Since 2014
Flight Experience: “Flying for about 4 years. Started as a student in a 1940 Taylorcraft, then got my Private Pilot in a Piper Warrior, then completed my tailwheel endorsement, and added Single Engine Seaplane, and High Performance Endorsement.”
Why he thinks it’s great to be a member of Cascade Flyers: “I love how the members care about the planes, and each other. We have access to schedule the planes ahead of time, using an online scheduling tool.”
Favorite Route: “Cross Country to the San Juan Islands (Orcas is about 50 NM away ). Also XC to the dry-side of the state and beyond.”

Tony I.
Member of Cascade Flyers: Since 2008
Flight Experience: “I started flying in 2004 as part of a college degree. After finishing my private and instrument ratings I was looking for an economic way to build time towards my commercial. I received a flyer in the mail in 2007 for the club and found not only an inexpensive way to fly, but an engaging group of pilots with a wide variety of backgrounds and experience. I finished my commercial certificate in 2009, and my degree not long after that.”
Why he thinks it’s great to be a member of Cascade Flyers: “Well maintained aircraft at reasonable rates. A great group of aviation enthusiasts.”
Favorite Route: “San Juan Islands are definitely the best. Instead of 3-4 hours dealing with the ferry, 30 minutes and you’re enjoying beautiful views and great food.”

Our Aircraft
The Cascade Flyers aircraft are hangared conveniently on-field at Paine Field in Everett, Washington (KPAE). The C172 is IFR equipped and is available to members at a low hourly rate. The C182 is an IFR equipped, high-performance aircraft with an STOL kit to aid short field performance and is also very reasonably priced. Both have recently had newly overhauled engines installed (2012/2016) so they are raring to fly!
