About Us

Wine Country Flyers is a group of hobbyists who build and fly model aircraft. Our club has been promoting model aviation in Sonoma County California since 1986. The mission of the club is to provide members with a safe flying site and provide help and training for model aviation enthusiasts. Our club is sanctioned by the Academy of Model Aeronautics (abbreviated AMA). The AMA is a national non-profit organization that helps to promote and regulate club and flying activities. We extend a warm welcome to anyone interested in becoming a member and learning more about this wonderful hobby. Our membership includes families who enjoy the hobby together as well as retirees who stay active and connected through club activities.

Model aviation provides an engaging means to connect youth with science, technology, engineering, and math.  As part of our training program, our club has:

• Trained youth to build and fly model aircraft
• Conducted in classroom lessons on model aviation
• Provided flying demonstrations to a wide variety of audiences

If you would be interested in engaging with the Club on any of these activities, please contact us.
