Visitors Welcome
Welcome to our web site - www.modelclub.org
The model aircraft flying club in central
Scotland near Cobbinshaw, Tarbrax and Auchengray, just south of Livingston in West Lothian,
was set up in December 1998. Our objectives are simple:-
We have transformed the site from a peat bog in to the excellent
facility you see today. We continue to attract highly skilled
flyers as well as that important commodity - beginners. Please
feel free to come along for a days flying - you will be made very
welcome.
The Flying Club is also pleased to welcome members of
The Astronomical
Society of Edinburgh
who will be
using the site at night as a Dark Sky Observation Site.

pits area, 50m x 3m access path, starter box and pilots
stand, together with the off-road hard standing car park
for 40 cars.
Great Runways, Great View, Great People =
A Great Day Out

pre-flight inspection to avoid dissapointment at the flying
site. If you are returning to the hobby, we are more than
happy to bring you up to date and arrange a couple of flights
using our buddy boxes.
