Barnstormers RC Flying Club
On behalf of the AMA, the Barnstormers RC Flying Club has been awarded with a Flying Site Development Improvement Grant worth $350.00. The Barnstormers RC Flying Club was founded in 1984 and has been an AMA Chartered Club for approximately 45 years. Club members enjoy flying their aircraft at the club’s flying site near Butteville, Oregon. The flying site has a 40’ x 441’ runway that is covered in a rubber impregnated canvas material, a 55’ x 500’ grass runway that runs parallel to the main runway, a pit area with 10 aircraft set-up tables, and a covered picnic area with three tables. The Barnstormers have more than 80 members who share a common passion for model aviation. The road to the club’s airfield has deteriorated to the point which they have to rebuild it to allow for vehicles to access the field. In its current state, the road is impassable at certain times throughout the year. The club has been saving funds for several years to properly complete this project and this grant will allow them to complete the site improvement.
