ATL Multi Time Building
 
Hi everyone,

I need to build multi PIC time in the ATL area, any ideas of the cheapest place I can do so? Does anyone have a multi we can split time in? Thanks!

I need the samething. But no one will let you rent their multi with out a instructor or 25 multi. I found a place in Florida that will rent a ductchess for 175 wet. And I think a three hour check out? Apopka Aviation & Flight Services - Aircraft

If you find anything let me know!

They approximate that price wet. But on the multi-engine rating page they say $190.

There is also Air America in Daytona that rents Duchesses for $195 and hour and can be flown without an instructor.

If you call them they require a 5 hour check out. And after interviewing there I wouldn’t recommend renting from them. Plus they have all sorts of ways to nickle and dime you along the way.

Care to elaborate other than the nickel and dime?

I'm not too familiar, but I believe if you come back after hours- since you have to park on an isolated ramp it's like $40 extra so someone can pick you up. But I've never rented there.

Yeah like the guy before me the call out fee is a bit much and you have to be escorted to the ramp. They also had some other fees for being late to your reservation, coming back after your reservation time, and only covered up to $3.00 dollars for fuel? I can't remember but I know it was a lot lower than the going rate of 100LL at DAB. I was there for an interview for a survey job and the whole operation is like a rolling frat party. No one knows whats going on. I waited 30 minutes for a CFI to come out to the plane on the ramp. Then the CFI was friendly at all and didn't say a whole lot. GPS wasn't up to date and its old king avionics. That was in a 172SP so I'm not sure what the dutchess has in it.

So yeah go for it, just budget for some extra cash.

Yeah, I was thinking in terms of just going there for the cheap Duchess rate to get my commercial multi add-on, not for cross country, so some of those problems such as gas reimbursement, etc wouldn't pertain to me. I'd always be with an instructor, so no late fees, etc.
