Member Services

Renters' insurance, aircraft insurance, legal services plan, a credit card with a 5-percent FBO rebate. Do you use any of these? If you're an AOPA member, you should-these special products and services were designed with you in mind. And now they have a new name: AOPA Member Products.

You'll find more than 20 products and services under the AOPA Member Products umbrella. Here are just a few:

• insurance for renter pilots and aircraft owners, and life insurance for all pilots.
• aircraft financing and title services.
• a line of credit that can be used to pay for flight instruction.
• a legal services plan that gives you quick access to an attorney who is experienced in aviation matters.
• a Visa or Mastercard through credit-card partner MBNA America Bank that not only offers a competitive annual interest rate, but something no other credit card gives you-a 5-percent rebate on every purchase you make at a qualifying fixed-base operator! That includes your flight training. And the card also gives you a 5-percent discount on everything you purchase at Sporty's Pilot Shop.

Thanks to AOPA Member Products, you'll also save money with discounts when you rent a car from Alamo, Avis, or Hertz, or take an FAA knowledge test at a CATS testing center.

When you use an AOPA Member Product-formerly known as AOPA Certified-a portion of the revenue comes to AOPA, where it helps to fund AOPA's efforts on behalf of general aviation, such as AOPA's Airport Watch program and the Meigs Field battle. It also helps to support programs and initiatives that you as an AOPA member receive free: AOPA Online, the toll-free Pilot Assistance hotline; AOPA's Airport Directory, online flight planning and weather, and more.

Your support of AOPA Member Products has helped the association to avoid an increase in annual membership dues for more than 10 years. So why not take advantage of the buying power of 400,000 AOPA members? For more information about AOPA Member Products, see AOPA Online or call 800/USA-AOPA.
