  • I am a Professional Pilot, I have to maintain currency to be able to fly. Since I am not currently employed as a Pilot I must pay for currency out of my own pocket. I have used Cactus Aviation for a couple of years. I have rented their aircraft and, until recently, haven't had any issues with Cactus. The school used to have a nice Cherokee 180 that I rented. The price was $119 per hour. In the last year, the aircraft rental price has skyrocketed, at Cactus. They are now renting a Piper Archer for $158.00 hours including a fuel surcharge. Why is their a fuel surcharge now that fuel prices have stabilized? I can understand having the charge when fuel prices are volatile, however, that is not currently the situation. I am giving the School 2 stars because, of the following reasons: * Rental/Training Contract is too restrictive (in my opinion). * They removed an aircraft from the fleet without notifying current renters (me) of the change. * Because of the change in aircraft, renter will now have to hire a flight instructor to get checked out for a touch screen GPS. I have used Flight Management Systems in Jets. A touch screen GPS is not rocket science. Why not jgive the renter the GPS manual and let him/her learn about the GPS by studying the manufactures instructions? Isn't that what the aircraft owner would have to do if he added the GPS to his aircraft? If, the renter feels he needs instruction they could ask for special training on the GPS. To conclude, Cactus Aviation has lost me, as a customer, due to aircraft price acceleration, and imposed mandatory training not mandated, nor required, by the FAA. (A formerly satisfied customer, now dissatisfied.) My suggestion, look at all the flight schools in the area. Check their contracts, prices, and policies, before you rent.
