Ponderosa Aero Club was formed in 1974 at a little airport on the Boise River called Strawberry Glen. Over thirty five years later, we're bigger and better, with a safety record second to none. We have the largest fleet of well equipped and well maintained aircraft in the state. We have an excellent selection of aircraft, from Cessna 172's and Piper Cherokee Archers, to a Cessna T210 that are available for rental or training at very competitive rates. If you're an economy minded recreational pilot, a backcountry flyer, or you want a fast and capable cross country machine, we have the plane for you! We train for private pilot, instrument, commercial, flight instructor and we have a very popular backcountry training course for our members. Our instructors are career instructors with your goals in mind! If flying for a living is your goal, learn to fly with Ponderosa Aero Club and earn your regionally accredited degree through Utah Valley University's Online Global Aviation Degree Program.

If you have questions or would like to come down for a tour of our facilities, please send an email to the or call us at (208)344-5401. We're located at 3591 Rickenbacker St. on the north side of the Boise airport.

Thanks for stopping by and we look forward to providing you with the best training, the best aircraft, and the friendliest people. Come join us! We're always looking for good new members!
