Welcome to the Milan R/C Flyers Webpage

The Milan R/C Flyers are an AMA chartered club dedicated to the promotion of the wonderful sport of radio-controlled model aviation. The club has approximately 70 members and flies out of big and beautiful Sanford Field in Milan, Michigan.

The Milan R/C Flyers are known for their excellent flight training program. The Flyers introduce model aviation to dozens of beginners every year. If you are interested in learning to fly, please stop by the field on any Thursday night starting April 6^th between 4:00pm and dusk, weather permitting, and we’ll be glad to help you out.

The Flyers also have several activities throughout the year. We host an annual Fun Fly and a very well attended public Air Show every summer. We also meet monthly at the Campfire Steakhouse on the third Monday of every month during the off-season at 7:00pm to show-off our new models and attend to club business. Club dues are very reasonable. The club dues give you access to our events as well as a monthly newsletter.

Please check the Events Calendar for all scheduled activities.

The Flyers are unique in that our field is owned by the City of Milan and is administered by the Milan Parks and Recreation Department. The Flyers have use of the field without charge in exchange for grooming and maintaining the field and grounds. Field maintenance is performed exclusively by the modelers who enjoy the use of the site. If you intend to fly at Sanford field, you are expected to contribute to the upkeep and maintenance of the site.

Your obligation for maintaining the field can be discharged in one of three ways:

1. Mow the field by pulling the gang mower with a suitable vehicle.

2. Trim around the bushes and fence using the field push-mower or use your own.

We are very proud of this facility and need your help in maintaining it. The job is easy when everyone pitches in and does his share. To do your part, please fill out the field maintenance form on this site.

Thanks for visiting the Milan R/C Flyers website. We look forward to flying with you!

Best Regards,

John Cramer
