Welcome to the
Bell-Air R/C Flyers

A little about us….

The Bell-Air flying club was originally formed in 1948, flying at several locations until having a permanent home since 1985 at its present location on the Lummi reservation. The club is a State of Washington, non-profit organization and is open to all who are interested in model aviation.

Long time members have a wealth of information that they willingly share with new pilots as well as those returning to the hobby. Bell-Air is a chartered club with AMA and as such has strict but reasonable rules to ensure the safety of all pilots and spectators.

The club hosts several flying events, picnics and swap meets during the summer months and holds meetings on the 3rd Monday of every month during the winter and at the field during the summer months. Meetings can be at the field (weather permitting), at one of a few indoor locations, or online through Zoom. See our membership application form for the current dues amounts for several types of club participation.

The club has a flight instruction program available to new pilots or those wishing to upgrade their skills. All flight instruction is free of charge. Lots more information on the club and events can be found on the club’s website.

The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) is a national organization that has been in place since 1936. All flying members must join the AMA. Canadian members and any other non-US resident members must have an affiliate AMA membership equivalent. The AMA provides the club and its members with a safety code, contest rules, local and national support programs as well as providing flight insurance for all members and the club.

Please explore our website’s Club Member Information link to read more. Our Constitution, By-Laws, and Field Rules documents will provide answers to the most common questions you might have.

Please feel free to ask questions of any club member or club officer.

We are here to enjoy model aviation!
