The Bay Area Aero Club (BAAC) is a non-profit Flying Club based at the Pearland Regional Airport. It has been in operation since 1979, and has a membership of approximately 115 members. The Club is managed by 6 officers selected by a Board of Directors. The 5 members of the Board are elected by the membership at an annual meeting. Monthly meetings are held the second Tuesday of every month at the airport. An Aviation Safety meeting follows every monthly meeting.
The membership is diverse and includes students working on obtaining a private license, private and commercial pilots, pilots with instrument and multi-engine ratings, CFI and CFII instructors, and airline transport pilots. Each member is covered by a comprehensive insurance policy, and is required to take an annual check ride with a certified Club Instructor.
The BAAC has aircraft agreements with several owners to rent their aircraft exclusively to Club members. The Club's fleet varies from time to time, but we try to maintain a mix that includes primary trainers, instrument trainers, complex aircraft, and single-engine cross country aircraft. Our aircraft are available for local and extended overnight trips.
The BAAC offers an attractive lease-back program for aircraft owners. The Club pays the standard airport ramp tie-down fees and a portion of the aircraft insurance coverage.
At this time, we have six (7) aircraft in the club. They are:
1972 Cessna 150
1969 Cessna 150
1968 Cessna 172
1985 Piper PA28-161
1969 Piper PA28-235
1974 Piper Arrow II PA28R-200
Tampico TB-9
More information on these planes, including rental rates can be found in our Fleet section.
Our Club House is located approximately ¼ mile inside the main gate on the
left side of the road. Our sign is prominently located on the front of the
porch. A membership application is available on this site (PDF
and Word
formats) and additional copies are available at the Club House and the Airport
Lobby. When completed these may be mailed to the Club secretary for approval.
Fees include an initiation fee of $75 (payable at orientation), and monthly dues
of $22. The BAAC offers an attractive aircraft agreement program for aircraft owners.
The Club pays the standard airport ramp tie-down fees and a portion of the
aircraft insurance coverage. The aircraft owners receive a specified dry rate
for the rental of their aircraft and all fuel and tax charges are collected from
the members and paid by the Club. A sample Aircraft
Agreement is available at this web site (Word
and PDF
formats). Any other correspondence should be sent to the local address for the Club: This web site provides details on upcoming
