1.
STANDARD CHECKOUT:
Each Renter must receive a standard aircraft checkout by a CCA-approved
instructor in the make and model of the aircraft they wish to rent.
A standard aircraft checkout will consist of a 1.0-hour ground
review on aircraft systems, limitations, weight and balance
calculations, and aircraft performance charts, and a flight of at
least 1.0-hour duration in the make and model. The duration of the
standard aircraft checkout may be decreased or increased at the
discretion of the CCA Instructor. The Renter will also be required
to meet the Practical Test Standards tasks and operations, as chosen
by the CCA instructor, for the pilot certificate and ratings then
held by the renter. In addition to being checked out in the
aircraft, the Renter must demonstrate that he or she meets the total
flight time and time in make and model of the rental aircraft as
determined by the insurance underwriter. If the Renter is unable to
demonstrate the required level of proficiency for his or her pilot
certificate and ratings held, the Renter will not engage in solo or
passenger-carrying operations until he or she receives additional
dual instruction and achieves the required proficiency. Renters are
required to meet all flight review, IFR currency (if applicable),
and passenger-carrying currency requirements as determined by the
FAA prior to conducting any solo or passenger-carrying operations.
2.
NIGHT
OPERATIONS: In
order to operate a CCA aircraft between one hour after sunset and
one hour before sunrise, the Renter must complete a night checkout
with a CCA flight instructor. A Renter who is first checked out for
night operations does not need to complete a standard daylight
checkout. The night checkout requirement may only be waived at the
discretion of a CCA Flight Instructor.
3.
IFR
OPERATIONS: In
order to operate a CCA aircraft on an IFR flight plan and/or in
instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), the Renter must (1) have
passed an instrument proficiency check (IPC) administered by a CCA-approved
instructor within the preceding six (6) months (unless waived by a
CCA-approved instructor), or (2) be accompanied by a CCA-approved
instructor.
4.
CURRENCY
REQUIREMENTS: In
addition to meeting all operation currency requirements set forth in
the Federal Aviation Regulations as well as the requirements set
forth above, no Renter may operate a CCA aircraft unless he or she
has flown within the previous ninety (90) days. In the event the
Renter has not flown within the previous ninety (90) days, an
additional standard aircraft checkout in the aircraft make and model
may be required as determined by a CCA-approved instructor.
Notwithstanding, all Renters are required to complete a standard
aircraft checkout every twelve (12) calendar months unless a flight
review or additional pilot certificate/rating has been completed
within the preceding twelve (12) months.
5.
SPECIAL
VFR OPERATIONS:
No Renter shall request a Special VFR clearance.
6.
RUNWAY
LIMITATIONS:
Except as a precaution or in an emergency, no Renter shall attempt a
landing on a runway that is not hard-surfaced (except the Piper
Warrior II, Archer and the Cessna 172N). Except as a precaution or in an
emergency, no Renter shall attempt takeoff or land on a runway that
does not meet the capabilities of the aircraft as properly
calculated in the Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH).
7.
PREFLIGHT
PLANNING: For any
flight not in the vicinity of an airport, or a flight into IMC, the
Renter shall become familiar with all available information
concerning the flight, which shall include weather reports and
forecasts, fuel requirements, alternates available if the planned
flight cannot be completed, and any known traffic delays of which
the pilot in command has been advised by Air Traffic Control (ATC).
For any flight, the Renter shall become familiar with runway lengths
at airports of intended use, and the takeoff and landing distance
data contained in the aircraft’s FAA Approved Flight Manual, or, if
an FAA-approved Flight Manual is not required for the aircraft,
other reliable information appropriate to the aircraft, relating to
aircraft performance under expected values of airport elevation and
runway slope, aircraft gross weight and center of gravity, and wind
and temperature. For all flights, the Renter shall obtain a standard
weather briefing from any FAA-approved source that includes Notices
to Airmen (NOTAMS) and temporary flight restrictions (TFRs).
8.
PREFLIGHT
INSPECTION:
Renter shall personally conduct a preflight inspection as prescribed
by the manufacturer of the aircraft, including checking the fuel
from all sumps and determining that the fuel and oil on board the
aircraft are sufficient for the purpose for which the Renter intends
to use the aircraft. If damage is found prior to flight, Renter
shall bring this information to a CCA representative’s attention, in
order to prevent Renter from liability for damage prior to his or
her flight. The Renter shall not start an engine when the wind
chill temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit for two hours or
longer since the last engine preheat or aircraft flight, unless the
engine has been properly preheated in accordance with the engine
manufacturer’s guidelines.
9.
PROHIBITED
OPERATION: The
aircraft shall not be used:
(a)
If not
properly dispatched (pilot not checked out/current, Hobbs at time
for annual/100 hour inspection, etc)
(b)
To carry
persons or property for hire
(c)
To give or
receive flight instruction unless such flight instruction is being
given by a CCA-approved flight instructor
(d)
In any race,
test, or contest, or aerobatics other than spins (if spins are
approved for the aircraft) for flight training, and then only if
accompanied by a CCA-approved flight instructor.
10.
AIRCRAFT
RETURN: Upon
return of a rental aircraft, the Renter shall properly tie the
aircraft down, install the control lock, buckle the seatbelts,
install the pitot tube cover, cowl plugs, replace the windscreen
covers, and remove any trash and empty oil bottles.
11.
FLIGHT
TIME REQUIREMENTS:
The minimum pilot flight
time requirements for rental of CCA aircraft are set forth in the
CCA insurance policy binder. CCA Flight Instructors or their
designated representative may not waive these requirements to less
than the minimum denoted in the insurance policy binder. CCA
reserves the right, however, to amend these requirements at any
time, with or without notice, or to impose higher requirements, on a
case by case basis, if, in the sole discretion of the CCA Flight
Instructor or his or her designated representative, such different
requirements are necessary to ensure safe flight.
12.
RENTAL
SCHEDULING:
Scheduling is done on the CCA scheduling link of the CCA website.
All scheduling is done subject to an aircraft’s prior need for
maintenance and/or periodic inspection. If a scheduled aircraft is
unavailable due to maintenance and/or periodic inspection, CCA will
endeavor to provide a similar aircraft if one is available. A
scheduled reservation will be made available to other renters if the
aircraft is not dispatched within one half hour of the reservation
time. Reservations should be adjusted to reflect the anticipated
dispatch time to allow efficient scheduling of the aircraft.
13.
RENTAL
CANCELLATION: In
the event the Renter needs to cancel a scheduled reservation, he or
she shall do so prior to his or her scheduled reservation time. A
Renter who fails to cancel prior to his or her scheduled time shall
be charged fifty percent (50%) of the aircraft’s current hourly
rental rate, and at least 1.0 hour up to 50% of the scheduled lesson
block hours at the approved CCA instructor’s current hourly rate for
the total lesson/rental time scheduled. Such charges may only be
waived at the discretion of the aircraft owner.
14.
MINIMUM
DAILY CHARGES: In
the event the Renter reserves an aircraft for 6.0 hours or more on
any weekday, Renter shall pay CCA for no less than 1.0 hour of
usage, regardless of actual usage. If the Renter reserves an
aircraft for 6.0 hours or more on a weekend day or holiday, Renter
shall pay CCA for no less than 3.0 hours of usage, regardless of
actual usage. In the event the Renter flies less than the required
minimum, Renter will be billed for the remainder at the current
hourly rate for the aircraft flown. Such charges may only be waived
at the discretion of the aircraft owner.
15.
PAYMENT:
CCA accepts
payment by check, MasterCard, or Visa. The Renter expressly agrees
to pay CCA at the conclusion of each flight and in all instances on
demand for:
(a)
The hours, to
the nearest present tenth, of usage indicated by the reading on the
hour meter (Hobbs) during the term of the rental (or, if the Hobbs
is inoperative, 115% of the tachometer time used), and any charges
to fulfill the minimum guarantee as specified in CCA’s current
rental rate sheet, the terms of which are incorporated above, under
Minimum Daily Charges.
(b)
Any charges
for failure to appear for a scheduled appointment or reservation
without having given notification in accordance with CCA Rental
Cancellation policy set forth above.
(c)
Any expenses
incurred by CCA to return an aircraft to its home base due to the
Renter’s inability to do so.
(d)
Any charges
incurred by the Renter for landing, parking, tie-down fees or any
and all other fees incurred by the Renter in connection with their
use of an aircraft.
(e)
The value of
any parts, accessories, instruments, and other items which are
missing from the aircraft when it is returned to its home base,
where the occurrence was due to the Renter’s neglect to properly
lock and secure the aircraft when left unoccupied during the rental
period.
16.
FUEL
PURCHASES: If a
fuel purchase is made at an airport other than KOSU, KUYF or KMRT, the
Renter will be reimbursed at the fuel rate at the place of purchase
on the date of purchase multiplied by the number of gallons
purchased, up to the OSU fuel rate. An original FBO receipt for the
rented aircraft detailing the number of gallons purchased and date
of purchase is required. The reimbursement amount will be credited
against the Renter’s outstanding balance due for the flight.
17.
ACCOUNT
REFUNDS: If, for
any reason, a Renter would like a refund of any credit on their
account, CCA will refund the funds within thirty (30) days.
18.
USE BY
OTHER PILOTS:
Only Renter, other CCA Renters meeting the Pilot in Command
requirements, and authorized CCA flight instructors shall be allowed
to pilot or operate CCA aircraft at any time.
19.
MAINTENANCE:
Except for minor repairs or scheduled maintenance performed by
qualified personnel, costing $100.00 or less, Renter will not have
repairs made to any part of the aircraft or its equipment without
specific authorization from a CCA representative. In the event of
repairs where the estimated downtime exceeds 24 hours, the Renter
has the option of:
(a)
Returning by
other means at Renter’s own expense, in which case expenses incurred
in bringing the aircraft to home base will be borne by CCA, or
(b)
Remaining with
the aircraft at Renter’s own expense until repairs have been
completed enabling return to home base.
20.
INSURANCE:
Renter
acknowledges the following LIMITS OF LIABILITY: $100,000 each
accident, $1,000,000 property damage, and $100,000 each passenger.
Each Renter must carry non-owned aircraft insurance with hull
coverage equal to the current insurance policy loss deductible of
$2,500 for single engine aircraft and $5,000 for multi engine
aircraft prior to solo flight.
