Welcome to the Louisville Radio Control Club.
We are a non-profit organization serving nearly 400 members and guest who
operate radio controlled model airplanes, gliders and helicopters. We are located
south of downtown Louisville (KY), in the south-eastern corner of the McNeely Lake Park.
We fly seven days a week, weather permitting. The club has lots to offer both
members and spectators, making for a great place for local residents to fly and
enjoy the flying. The club features a well-kept 125 feet wide by 670' grass runway,
with ample room to fly most model aircraft. We adhere to strict noise and safety
regulations, making us a good neighbor to surrounding community. Anybody can
come out to watch the flying, and we welcome new members. Pilots can join the
club once they obtain a membership to the AMA, a national modelers association.
Pilot visitors are welcome to fly up to three (3) times without joining the club,
provided they are insured through the AMA.

Facilities: 670 foot long x 125 foot wide, well maintained grass runway
