North Little Rock R/C Flying Club

Welcome

To the home of the North Little Rock R/C Flying Club, AMA #4742.  This is a unique
organization, in that the club sponsors the 2nd R/C Flight School.  Our mission requires
us to strictly follow ALL the AMA safety code guidelines.  Any instructor, student, club
member, temporary club member or intro candidate, that violates the AMA safety
code will be dismissed.

There is never a charge for MARC's (my other local club) students provided they have their
own equipment.  If they  utilize School Equipment they are required to purchase fuel. 
If these local students would happen to damage a club plane, the student is required to
reimburse the club for repairs or replace the aircraft or equipment.

This is a non-profit activity, in that ALL the fees go toward equipment
and field expenses.  Instructor pay is $20 a day which offsets their gas
to travel to our field.

Our Mission

Is dedicated to helping others succeed at safely flying radio controlled aircraft.
