Feedback Welcome.
Visitors Always Welcome
Welcome to our web site. The model aircraft flying club in central Scotland near Cobbinshaw, Tarbrax and Auchengray, just south of Livingston, West Lothian was set up in December 1998. The objectives were to provide good facilities, good training, good communications, and to provide the opportunity for people to get started. We have turned the site from a basic peat bog into the excellent site you see today. We continue to attract both highly skilled flyers as well as that important commodity: beginners. Please feel free to come along for a day's flying and check us out - you will be very welcome.

Fliers will appreciate
the 66m
x 6m tarmac runway, 66m x 12m grass runway, the 20m x 3m
pits area, 50m x 3m access path, starter box and pilots
stance, together with the off-road hard standing car park
for 40 cars.
Great runways,
great view, great people = a great day out.
