Are you "Just getting started?"
If so, HFFT offers FREE Flight Training.
HFFT has several experienced Flight Instructors available to inspect your plane and give you flying lessons. The best part is the lessons are FREE, with your paid membership. You DO NOT have to be a member to start your flying lessons. You may use the field with the help of one of our Flight Instructors three (3) times as a guest before joining the club. This gives you a chance to start flying, try out the field, and meet the members BEFORE you join.
