Welcome to our club website
The Club has been operating at its current site for more than 35 years; it has been supporting model flyers in the Penrith and Blue Mountains area since the early 60’s.
The majority of members are "social fliers" and we fly most Saturday mornings and Sundays for the fun of it.
The members fly a wide range of models from small electric, glow and larger gas planes. We even have a number of members who have ventured in to the world of gas turbines.
Control Line flying has had a bit of a resurgence in the club with a number of members regularly flying control line and more intending to give it a go or revisit their past.
Some of our members also fly helicopters.
