Aircraft/Instruction (USA-Domestic)
Block Rate will be defined as discount credits made available only to students who are committed to completing their training program AND make payments in blocks of $1500.00 each and which will be applied towards Aircraft rental/Instruction charges described in Pay as You Go & Rate Sheet “A”. A $150 Block rate discount credit will be issued on each $1500.00 block payment. Block rate discount credit is applied towards Program completion only and any unused portion of all funds paid and credited must be flown off. There will be no refund of block rate credit issued or deposits made under any circumstances as such discount credits are only offered to those students intending to complete the signed for training program.

Step 1. Confirm that you meet the requirments for discount
Step 2. Schedule Your Training
Step 3. Purchase Your Block Rate Package
Block Rate Credit (“BRC”) is a program completion credit and given is to students who deposit $1,500.00 at a time and is applied towards program completion only. What that means is that “BRC” is not redeemable in cash as these are credits provided by OCFC towards program completion AND can only be applied towards the cost of flight training and aircraft rental. Furthermore, “BRC” is never to be applied to negative accounts. Any monies paid should first be applied to bring an account to positive or zero and only after which a student will be eligible for “BRC”. What does this mean? If, for example, a student on the day of the flight is either negative, zero balance or has a balance that is positive, but if he flies that day without pre- paying on his account and his account will become negative, he must pay up before the day ends. However, If an account is left negative overnight then no “BRC” will be applied until his account is zeroed out or is brought current. Please note, from here onward we will have zero tolerance to negative accounts which means a renter or student cannot fly or an aircraft SHALL NOT BE DISPATCHED without an account being current or in positive status. Effective immediately, OCFC will not dispatch an aircraft when the renter has accumulated a negative account. The dispatcher who dispatches an aircraft when there is an outstanding balance shall be personally responsible and held liable for the negative account in an amount equal to the resultant negative amount at least until the account is brought current by the renter/student. If for some reason inadvertent an account becomes negative, it must be brought to a zero status or positive within seven days from the date the account becomes negative, failing which either the student and/or the dispatcher will have to assume full responsibility for the losses incurred by OCFC.
A 5% Course Completion Discount “CCD” discount will be credited to an account after an enrolled student completes 40 hours of flight training. “CCD” are course completion credits and are not redeemable in cash or checks or refunds. “Course Completion Discount Credits “CCDC” are only redeemable for flight training/instruction and/or aircraft rental at OCFC related activities and at any and all CFC training/charter facilities and affiliated institutions throughout the United States. In the calculation of “CCD” the actual monies spent by the student towards any flight training programs offered by OCFC is taken into account.
This will not include any Block rate credits given to any enrolled student as Block Rate credits. Meaning that “CCDC” equals 5% of ALL cash payments made by an enrolled student minus any block rate credits given to the student. In effect any student enrolled as 1-4 above at the time of enrollment is eligible for a total of about 25% in discount credits which includes Block rate credits (10% for funds deposited in excess of $1500.00) plus Course Completion Discount credits. Furthermore, it is imperative that an enrolled student maintain their status as members of 1-4 above at all times during their flight training at OCFC. Any student not enrolled as such at the time of enrollment will not be eligible for “CCDC” under any circumstances.
