Time Building from Spanaway

Your Hours, Your Way — from Spanaway

Spanaway sits right on SR 7 (Pacific Avenue), the highway that runs south from the Tacoma area straight toward Yelm and Western Airpark — roughly a 25 to 30-minute drive to 06WN. With Joint Base Lewis-McChord next door, civilian GA options around Spanaway are limited, so a fixed-term dry lease on the 1975 Cessna 150 is a genuinely convenient way to build hours without fighting for a shared rental. You're Pilot-in-Command; the block is yours.

01

A clean run down SR 7

Pacific Avenue takes you almost door-to-door from Spanaway to the airpark — no cross-town detours.

02

Room to build without the base traffic

JBLM dominates the local airspace picture. 06WN gives Spanaway pilots a quiet, dedicated field to log real hours.

03

No sharing, no scheduling

The airplane is yours for the term — fly it on your own time until the block is flown.

FAQ

Spanaway Dry Lease & Time Building

The short answers
How far is Western Airpark 06WN from Spanaway?
Western Airpark (06WN) is located about three miles southeast of Yelm, Washington in Thurston County. Confirm current drive time from Spanaway before your first checkout flight.
Can Spanaway pilots fly the Cessna 150 without sharing it?
Yes. This is a fixed-term dry lease, not a club or shared rental. For the length of your lease you are Pilot-in-Command and the aircraft is exclusively yours until your block hours are flown.
What do I need to start building hours?
A current FAA Private Pilot License, a current FAA medical, and a one-time one-hour checkout with an approved CFI. Student pilots are not eligible.
How much does it cost?
Block-time dry-lease rates run from $75/hour (30-49 hours) down to $65/hour (150-200 hours) on a fixed term. You buy your own fuel; oil, insurance, and maintenance are covered.
Can I base the airplane at my own home field instead of driving to Yelm?
Yes. After your one-hour CFI checkout at Western Airpark 06WN you are Pilot-in-Command and may fly the Cessna 150 to a home field of your choice, then tie down or hangar it there for the lease term — anywhere within 150 nautical miles of 06WN. You cover your own tie-down, hangar and landing fees, and the aircraft returns to 06WN at the end of the lease and for scheduled maintenance.
