--Who We Are
We are a radio control flying club that is located in the beautiful Trabuco Canyon in Orange Country, California. Our members fly a wide variety of planes and helicopters, from gentle electric park flyers to giant scale 3D aircraft and helicopters. We fly from a 465' x 50' Asphalt runway and taxiway that is well maintained by our members. We also have a covered spectator area with picnic tables and ample parking for our fun flys that are held in the summer and fall.
Come visit us. All flyers and visitors are welcome. AMA is required to fly at our site. We have instructors available if you are just starting out. All members are happy to lend a hand in any way possible. Come join the fun at The Trabuco Flyers Club!
--About Our Founding
Trabuco Flyers was organized in late 1989, by six individuals with the desire to provide the young and old with the opportunity to enjoy the building & flying of radio controlled model airplanes, plus the camaraderie with others involved in our hobby/sport on a continuing basis . We were blessed with a paved runway and taxi-ways, pit areas, large oak trees for shade over our picnic area, a large facilities building, complete with air conditioning, heating and our own water supply from a well. We began operating our flying site in March, 1991 and continue enhancing the site as we go.
--Flying Times
Our Flying site is open seven (7) days a week from 9:00 AM until dusk for flying. Many of us arrive earlier in the morning to enjoy the scenery and wild animals while enjoying the camaraderie of our fellow members. Special event days allow for night flying.
--Asphalt Runway and Taxiway
The asphalt runway is 465' long and 50' wide complete with a 220' long and 15' wide taxiway. The pit area is located along the taxiway, with five pilot flying stations between the pits and runway. The field is controlled from an ATC tower for safety during busy fly times and special events.
