    ABOUT US

We had our beginnings back in 1975 when several local aeromodellers, still current members, felt the need for a club in the Sunbury-Gisborne area. These people were all members of suburban clubs and aware or the growing number of aeromodellers in our area. They called a meeting and began the model aircraft club of Sunbury.

Our numbers grew steadily, requiring organised meetings and particularly a flying field. In the early years it was our greatest problem, until the present field owner came to our rescue.

During our time we have excelled in many areas at club, State, and National competitions.  The club is held in high regard at home and other club venues. Some of our members have served on State and National committees, with distinction.

 

Club meetings are held on the first Tuesday of every month at 7:30 pm at the Sunbury Secondary college, Racecourse rd., Sunbury.
