I might also add that half of the fun of this Hobby is the camaraderie. I know that some clubs can be expensive to get into the first year but it is worth it to have a safe & friendly place to fly. Flying alone can also be very dangerous if you get injured & your by yourself out in the boonies somewhere.

Like carrellh said most clubs will wlecome you to come & check them out & let you have a guest fly or two, but to continue to use the facility you will need to join the club. We had a kid that was using our field & telling those of who fly regular on Wed. & Fri. that he was a member. He got away with this for several months until we found out he has been doing this at 4 other clubs in the area as well & it turns out he isn't a member of any of them. Now he's crying foul because no clubs within 100 miles from here will even except a membership application from him. He has been black-balled at all the clubs & feels that he has been wronged for not being allowed to join after he has been caught lying to us all for months.[sm=idea.gif] Go figure!
