Come Fly With Us
Welcome to the Official Home Page of the Greenfield Flyers,
an Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) chartered model aircraft club in Bakersfield, California. AMA charter No. 4741. We are an FAA FRIA-approved flying field.
Our 600 foot by 70 foot hard packed DG runway
easily accommodates larger aircraft.
Open airspace gives plenty of maneuvering room.
We have lots of shade, prep tables and safety run-up stands.
The flying site is open to all current AMA members. Please see the “Field Rules” section for our guest policy.
If you are interested in joining, feel free to come check out the field.
The field is open 7 days a week, but only members have the gate code.
Sunday is the best day to come by.
