Welcome to Inverurie & District Model Flying Club

| Who are we? |
|
| Inverurie and District Model Flying club operates to provide a suitable and safe environment for the enjoyment of model aircraft flying. Our membership is open to all, and whether you are a complete novice or a seasoned veteran you will benefit from what we have to offer at IDMFC. Our flying site caters for all forms of model aircraft and is available all year round to its members. If you would like to get involved in this exciting hobby then check out the contacts and get in touch with one of our Committee members for more details. |

| Where are we? |
 |
| Our flying field is located 8 miles north of Inverurie near the village of Meikle Wartle in Aberdeenshire. We can be found by taking the B9001 from Inverurie and looking for the Meikle Wartle turnoff. The flying field is situated in a rural area with unobstructed views in all directions with Mount Bennachie providing a picturesque backdrop. There is ample car parking space for members and visitors, a picnic and BBQ area, pit area, fenced off starting area and two open runways. Click here for directions to the field. |

| Learning to fly. |
 |
| IDMFC can provide training to its members for most types of model aircraft. Our aim is to ensure that the risk of damage to your model during your training is kept to a minimum and that at the end of your training you have built up the confidence to fly your model safely without endangering yourself or your fellow club members. Most of our instructors have Enhanced Disclosures through the Scottish Aeromodellers Association and provide training free of charge to all IDMFC members. Click here for more details. |
|
| IDMFC Events. |
 |
| Throughout the year IDMFC holds various events. These events include Fun Fly's where we invite other like minded model flyers to our field, Open Days where we open our club to interested members of the public, and Safety/Training weekends when model flyers can achieve their SAA Safety Award Certificates. We also hold some indoor events such as club meetings.
Details of these events are listed on our events page. |
|
| Members builds. |
 |
| Our club forum includes a section where club members document their latest builds. These builds range from Helicopters to Turbine Power Jets and are the ideal way of finding out about a potential kit or to see how other modellers solve some tricky problems during the build. Most of the builds include detailed photographs of each stage of the construction and are an invaluable source of information for new club members. Click here to view the builds. |

| Image and video gallery. |
