Welcome!

Hi there! We are the Valley Flyers (Blue Sky Pilots’, Inc.) Flying Club, located at McNary Field (KSLE) in Salem, the capital of Oregon. It is a small city in the heart of the beautiful Willamette Valley. It is truly one of the best places on earth, and there are good flying days all year.

We have five well maintained aircraft, great members, and fine instructors. Our members can take primary flight training, work on advanced ratings, or just use the airplanes for pleasure. We also have flyouts, BBQs, and other fun social events.

If you’ve been thinking of learning to fly, or if you are a pilot in the Salem area and need an airplane to fly, please consider joining us. Happy landings!
