The LMA was formed in the UK in 1982 to bring together people who are interested in flying large model aircraft and keep the large models flying.

From an initial meeting in the first Chairman’s living room 40 years ago, the LMA has grown to over 1000 members, mostly in the UK but with members around the world.

The definition of ‘large’ model aircraft has itself grown over the years from anything over 5kg in 1982 to anything over 25kg today up to 150kg.

From the start, and despite the name, the LMA has always embraced model aircraft of all sizes, and members fly from the biggest to the smallest and now embrace drones.

In the late 1980’s, the LMA began running public displays to showcase and promote large model aircraft to both the modelling community and the general public. The LMA now runs several displays around the country each year, for details see upcoming events.

The Scottish Aeromodellers Association (SAA) was formed eighty years ago providing a non-profit Scottish body dedicated to the maintenance and support of the internationally recognised sport encompassing all model flying disciplines.

The SAA exists as an Association of Scottish Aeromodelling Clubs and provides a variety of services, events, competitions, and knowledge base for its members.
