Welcome to Kempton Park Model Flying Club Website (ver 16c)
Kempton Park Model Club is based at the famous Kempton Park Race Course in Sunbury On Thames, Middlesex.
The club operates within the security of the race course itself. Visitors have to be accompanied by a member at all times!
The grass runway is approx 100m long x 50m wide, and has recently been extended this year to allow take off's & landings from all four compass point directions! The club has also just invested in a brand new ride on mower to keep the grass in nice order too! A small width tarmac road seperates the strip from the parking / pits area.
Both fixed wing and helicopters are flown at our club, and can be electric, nitro or petrol powered. We also race cars & buggies around when it's too windy to fly !
The club has over 80 members.

Well despite having the trees trimmed - guess who ended up in them again !
When will we see one of these at our strip ?
Please remember to use the BILLY NO MATES website !
Weather permitting Tuesdays, Thursdays and Weekends still see a regular handful, and if you want to come along at other times and do not want to fly alone you should have recently recieved an email referring you to the Billy No Mates website so you can check on whose flying on the day ! Remember to add your times if flying so others can see too !
