Blenheim Model Aero Club's flying site is located on the ARA vineyard on state highway 63 approximately 10 km  from the Renwick, West Coast road turn off. Club members meet at our flying site every Sunday and Wednesday  morning. If you are interested in radio controlled flying, please feel free to visit our  flying field on a club day. Alternatively, if you are interested in joining our club, contact our club Secretary
As well as our regular Sunday and Wednesday club days we also host an annual fly-in once a year, and several float fly's on one of the large lakes on ARA's vineyard.
Our club members have a wide range of interests in model radio controlled aircraft including scale, vintage, aerobatics, electric, gliding and jet turbines and are willing to share their knowledge with anyone else who has an interest.
