Model Air Plane Clubs in New Jersey

Model airplane clubs can be found throughout the United States in small towns, rural areas and cities. Most clubs have fly-ins at least once a month in fields or municipal parks, where members come together to fly their planes and talk about their mutual interest. New Jersey is home to at least a dozen model airplane clubs that vary in size and meeting frequency. Joining one of these clubs is a great way to further your interest in model airplanes, whether you're just getting started or have always flown solo.
