Welcome to the Manx Model Flyers.
Manx Model Flyers was formed in 1968, as the Manx Model
Aircraft and Boat Club. During the 1970's the club split into two separate
clubs and the Manx Model Flyers was born. We have grown in strength
annually with presently just over 55 members, flying mostly radio control,
both power and glider. The power side benefits from use of Jurby, a
disused airfield, while the gliders have a huge choice of sites on the
hills all over the Island , we also have the use of a field at Archallagan,
during the summer, which has closely mown grass runways.
The
club logo shows a Latin motto, which means (more or less):
'Whichever
way you throw me, I fly'.
(If only true!!!)
If you are interested in joining or just want to
find out more, either come and see us, we meet most weeks at Peel Golf
Club, presently on
Thursday evenings at 8pm or contact the
secretary.
