The Wellington Model Aeroplane Club (Inc.) was established in the late 1930's and since then has been active in promoting the building and flying of model aircraft.  It is affiliated to the New Zealand Model Aircraft Association (NZMAA), the governing body for all model flying in New Zealand, which in turn is affiliated to the Federation Aviation International (FAI), through the Royal New Zealand Aero Club.

Modellers who need help or advice with their project or those simply interested in getting into the hobby/sport are most welcome at any meeting.  Members are encouraged to bring along their latest building project for a 'Show and Tell' session, or to have the practiced eye of an expert check it over prior to the test flight.

Social events also include the occasional barbecue, prize giving or club outing.  All ideas for other activities are welcomed, please raise them with a committee member or send an email to the Secretary outlining your suggestions.

The Club financial year starts on the 1 March and includes affiliation to the NZMAA (includes five issues of the national magazine "The Fliers' World" and 3rd party insurance).  WMAC publishes its 'Hot Air' newsletter each month, and provides flying fields, tuition, expert advice and comradeship with like-minded people.

Club subscriptions are listed below:

Senior:   $115 ($105 if paid before 1 May)
Family:   $125 ($115 if paid before 1 May)
Junior:   $60 ($50 if paid before 1 May)

Associate Membership
(only available to those affiliated to the NZMAA through membership of another club)

Senior:   $60 ($50 if paid before 1 May)
Junior:   $35 ($25 if paid before 1 May)

You will surely agree that's not a lot of money for a whole lot of fun, access to flying fields, insurance while you are flying and the chance to associate with some of the friendliest people in the hobby/sport.

To join the club, please contact the Treasurer and request a Membership Application Form form.

A warm welcome is extended to past, present and potential members.  If you're in search of a new and exciting hobby/sport we look forward to meeting you at a flying site or a club meeting.
