ABOUT US

Welcome to Gateshead Model Flying Club. Our Club was reformed in the early 1970’s, having originally been a control line and free flight club dating back to the 1950's. Initially members flew from the Team Valley Trading Estate before Retail World was constructed. We then moved to a site close to Tanfield Railway and have been using our current site since 1980. We are a friendly and informal club of about 25 members ranging from teenagers to octogenarians. With recent advances in electric flight technology, many members now fly electric aircraft in preference to traditional IC power. The flying of Control Line and Gas Turbine powered aircraft is not permitted.
