Aircraft Rental

Absolute Aviation’s Cessna 172 aircraft are available for rent to current students and qualified pilots who have undergone a successful check-out flight with our Chief Flight Instructor.

–  Rental rate for a Cessna 172 is $215/hour (*Including fuel)

–  We accept Credit Cards, Debit Cards, e-Transfers

–  COPA Renter Insurance is required                                                                        [Proof of insurance being in place is required at time of rental]

–  Pre-departure and Post-return inspections are $40.00 each

–  $2,500 Security/Damage deposit is required                                                          If using a Credit or Debit card, the amount is held, not charged

Your deposit will be refunded in full.  (Provided there are no additional charges for off-site fuel, late return, damages or other incidentals.  The refund will be via the same method of payment.)

If paying with a credit card a hold is put on the card account for the estimated cost of the rental & inspection fees, plus security deposit.  Following a post-rental inspection, the hold will be lifted, adjusted for actual usage and any security/damage provisions. 

If paying with a debit card, we require payment for the estimated cost of the rental & inspection fees, plus security deposit.  Following a post-rental inspection a refund will be initiated to the same debit card, adjusted for actual usage and any security/damage provisions.

* Including fuel, aka ‘Wet.’  When refueling away from the Wetaskiwin Regional Airport, the cost per liter will be adjusted to Wetaskiwin fuel prices.

(ensure you obtain a printed receipt from the fuel-station that indicate price per liter and liters added, to present to AA staff)
