Welcome to CPA Flying!
From the Fly-In Committee ChairWelcome to one of the Association’s premier activities! CPA fly-ins are weekend adventures to some of the most spectacular airports in the West β from the red rocks of Sedona to the canyon country of Moab.
Whether you’re a seasoned fly-in host or thinking about leading your first trip, you’ll find everything you need here β from planning tools and the AI itinerary wizard to registration, real-time flight tracking, and the season leaderboard. The Fly-In Committee Chair is always available to help at the contact form.
Hosting a CPA fly-in isn’t difficult β it just takes a desire to create an enjoyable trip for you and your fellow members. Start early, use the tools below, and you’re never alone at any point!

Fly-In 10 Commandments
The golden rules every host should know
Practice hosting a fly-in
This does NOT create a fly-in.
- It is a private rehearsal of the host steps: proposing the fly-in, then sign-ups, the roster, payments, expenses and the wrap-up report.
- It never appears on the calendar or the fly-in list. Only you can see it, and it comes with made-up sign-ups to work with.
- No money changes hands and no real card is ever asked for.
- The Fly-In Chair and the Treasurer are not notified. It closes on its own after 30 days.
