Sport Flying

The most popular activity model aircraft flyers take part in we refer to as Sport Flying.

Taking place most days of the week when the weather is suitable at the hundreds of model flying club sites across the UK. Simply flying for the fun, thrill and sheer pleasure of taking to the air with whatever type of model aircraft or drone takes the flyers fancy is hard to beat as a recreational activity. It's a great stress buster and social activity, you can read about the wellbeing benefits at https://bmfa.club/health-wellbeing

Whether a sport model, something that is clearly a model aircraft but not modelled on a full size prototype or whether an immaculate scale replica of a Spitfire or some other aircraft, when we fly them outside of competition and training and just for the joy of flight, Sport Flying is the activity.
