Gordano Model Flying Club, formerly AMARC, has been in existence for over forty-five years and currently has a membership of over 60. If you want to learn more about our club, you can take part in one of our regular meetings. Admission is free, you do not have to be a member of GMFC to attend the meeting. Please look in the Event section to see where and when the next meeting will take place. We aim to hold a ‘Club Day’ once a month where we spend a couple of hours doing site maintenance, and then an afternoon of flying and catching up with friends. In the summer we often have a BBQ or Tea and Cakes.
Gordano Model Flying Club has its own flying field in the Gordano Valley, between Portishead and Clevedon. We have a construction permit in its entirety to allow 365 days of flight. This depends on the rules of the club and we must meet the strict conditions with regard to wildlife in the area. All members should follow the rules on this page.
Our site is set in a beautiful location and is equipped with a picnic area to relax in, including an under cover decking area.
We welcome new members after they have met with a member of the club committee, where the clubs aspirations and limitations will be discussed. You will be asked to read, understand and sign an agreement to abide by the club rules and BMFA guidelines.
Guest Fliers are always welcome to join us, we prefer them to be current BMFA members and ask them to carry their card when on our site. They must be accompanied at all times when in possession of an aircraft by the inviting member, who will have cleared their visit with the Chair, Vice chair, Treasurer or Secretary beforehand. They are limited to a MAXIMUM of two visits per year and are the members sole responsibility.
