Contact Secretary

Phoenix Flyers of Launceston Club was established in 1979 and has occupied its current location at Panshanger Estate, Longford TAS, since 1987. The club has approximately 60 members (including Associates and Social members) and is affiliated with the Tasmanian Model Aeronautical Association (TMAA). This affiliation with the TMAA, and the club facilities at Longford, enable the club to provide a safe and enjoyable way to learn and participate in the hobby of aero-modelling and flying.

The Club caters for most codes of flying including powered fixed wing planes, gliders, helicopters and jets. The Club has experienced pilots and instructors on hand to offer advice to newcomers on getting started in the hobby. The Club instructors can also carry out proficiency testing for pilots to gain their “Bronze Wings” and beyond. The Club also has several experienced model builders who are happy to assist with advice for those looking to “scratch-build” a model. The field and facilities are available 7 days a week with Sunday generally a club day with a BBQ lunch on most Sundays.

Anyone wanting to learn more about this great hobby is welcome to contact the Club Secretary on the link above, or come out to the field on a Sunday morning (the directions to the field are on the website). The Club also welcomes members of other flying clubs to come and fly and enjoy the magnificent view of the Western Tiers.

Phoenix Flyers of Launceston is proud to support LCKA
