Library Day is a very popular public outreach event. Throngs of kids of all ages come out to the field and fly R/C trainers using buddy-boxes (dual controls) watched over by experienced WMAA pilots.
Everyone enjoys a free lunch of soft drinks, hot dogs and chips supplied by the club.
Library Day has been set for Saturday, July 24 from 10:00 am until approximately 2:30 pm.
The Westerville Model Aeronautic Association (WMAA) is a AMA sanctioned flying club with facilities at 6590 Africa Rd., 1/4 mile east of the Alum Creek Dam in Delaware County. In 1987, the WMAA leased this ten acre site from the US Army Corps of Engineers. No public money is spent on this field. We started with an undeveloped parcel of land and have installed:
• A 900 foot long grass runway.
• Protective fencing.
• Five concrete pad flying stations
• A concrete paved pilot preparation area including workbenches and
setup/engine starting stands.
• A frequency control board with slots for each channel to hold pilots’ AMA cards.
• A shelter house with several picnic tables.
• A paved parking lot.
• Secure equipment storage sheds.
• A portable toilet.
• A windsock and flagpole.
• Extensive landscaping.
AMA and club rules are prominently posted. Please see www.wmaa-wags.org for more info.
