Welcome
Welcome to the internet home of the Rutland County RC Flyers. The Rutland County RC Flyers are dedicated model aviation enthusiasts that fly during the warmer months at the site of the former Fair Haven Municipal Airport, in Fair Haven, VT. The club has been an officially chartered club with the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) since 1991. We are part of AMA's District-1, which includes all AMA clubs in New England.
We welcome visitors to our field anytime we're flying. We're there almost any day that conditions allow during the warmer months.
You can stay tuned for our latest activities right here, or visit us on our Facebook Group. You don't have to have a FB account to view posts on the club's Facebook Group, so it's open to all.

Airfield Workday Sunday Apr 28th
All hands are requested to join the effort starting at 9am Sunday to roll our airfield, fill in ruts, etc. We'll hope for a good weather day. Please bring shovels, rakes, whatever and help out if you can.
When you do venture to the field, be advised the original gravel runway is akin to a 'torture track' for your vehicle, chock full of deep ruts and potholes, so take it slowly. Our parking area is actually firming up quite well, especially for this early in the season.
If you can make it, we hope to see you there!
Learn to Fly!
Have you always wanted to give flying radio control aircraft a try? Come see us! We have qualified instructors and a training aircraft available at the field to give you an introductory hands-on flight. Should you then decide you'd like to pursue this hobby, we'd love to have you join us!
