Time Building from Tumwater

Your Hours, Your Way — from Tumwater

Tumwater is home to Olympia Regional Airport (KOLM) — the field about four miles south of Olympia where much of the south sound learns to fly. That makes Tumwater pilots some of the most likely hour-builders in the region, and Western Airpark 06WN is roughly a 30-minute drive east toward Yelm. If you're used to booking a shared club 150 at KOLM and matching an instructor's calendar, a fixed-term dry lease is a different animal: the airplane is yours for the block.

01

You already know the airplane

Tumwater's KOLM crowd trains in exactly this class of aircraft. A Cessna 150 dry lease is a natural next step for building the hours cheaply.

02

Own the schedule

No shared calendar. Fly day or night on your own time until the block is done.

03

Predictable cost

Lock a block rate from $75 down to $65/hr up front — you know your number before you start.
