AOPA New Membership

Please complete the form below to apply and pay for your chosen membership. Thank you for Joining AOPA UK.

This is the application form for new 2 Year Pilot or Instructor membership paid by Direct Debit.

2 year Membership by Direct Debit is paid in two annual instalments  - the first instalment will be taken as soon as possible and the second one year later.  NOTE: The second instalment may increase in line with any membership rate increase. Rates are reviewed annually and come into effect from 1 April.

It is only available to applicants with a UK Bank Account and a UK or EU Postal Address.

You will be contacted by AOPA UK prior to expiry of your second year of membership and advised of renewal options.

To complete the Direct Debit Mandate you will need your bank account details to hand.

On submission of this form you will be redirected to a secure external link to set up your Direct Debit mandate. This service is provided by GoCardless, who will manage payments and advise payment notices by email. AOPA do not hold any of your bank account details.

By using this option you are agreeing to make two payments per two year membership. If you cancel your Direct Debit mandate before making the second payment you will be liable to pay the second instalment by alternative means.
