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.

Weekend Outlook
Well, it's getting to be that time of year again, when pilots eventually come out of hibernation, and bring their latest projects to the airfield to show off, and hopefully fly. The weekend looks somewhat promising, with at least partly sunny skies in the forecast and temps reaching the 50's. It's the winds that might prove a bit tricky for those of us with smaller aircraft, but hey, at least we'll get a workout with the sticks! Be advised that field conditions are a bit soft at present, and we are waiting on the Town to complete grading of the original gravel runway. Drive, and park, with caution.
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!
