Guests are welcome to fly at TIMPA when the gate is open and a Safety Officer is present, usually Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday & Sunday mornings (weather permitting). The Guest Fee is $5.00 per day but this is waived for your first day. All flying must be in accordance with the TIMPA Field and Safety Rules and the AMA Safety Code. Learn more about our safety rules.
Yearly Memberships are available for $85.00 - this is reduced by $10.00 each subsequent month starting April 1. First time members also need to purchase a TIMPA Gate Card for $10. This allows you to access the field when the gate is closed. All money collected is used for field maintenance and improvements – we have no paid personnel. View detailed pricing chart.
