AMAC is based at a private site situated just outside Ashton u Lyne where we fly radio controlled fixed wing and helicopters.

We have a number of experienced instructors, plus 3 BMFA examiners, so both beginners and experienced model flyers are welcome. The majority of the member fly mode 1, which is the mode taught to our student pilots.

The club’s flying times are as follows:-

The club adheres to the BMFA code of practice and all models are subject to the 82dba and 7kg limits. Due to the conditions set by the landlord there is a limit to our membership numbers.

There is a heated club house at our flying site where hot drinks are available on all flying days plus, on Sundays, hot food is available. The club house has recently been extended due to its popularity among our members.
