Flying Field

Kings Bay R/C Modelers would like to thank the Public Service Authority of Camden County, Mr. William Brunson, and everyone who donated time and effort for their hard work and generous support in providing the club and county with a flying field and the beautiful paved and striped runway.  We also thank Seaboard Construction for donating the material and providing labor.

Our field is rather small: once you can fly from our field you will be able to fly from any R/C airplane flying site!  It is located near the intersection of I-95 and Laurel Island Parkway between Camden County High School and the Camden campus of Coastal Georgia Community College. GPS location is N30.81090, W81.64963. From Laurel island Parkway turn South onto Wildcat Drive and follow the road past the recreation department and softball fields. Turn right at the stop sign. Our field will be on your right.

Flying Site
Update May 2008

As with many flying sites, development around our site continues. The area shown in red now has homes, and the area shown in yellow is being cleared for further development. The North end of the field is "shared use" and used by soccer teams and is also used for parking by ball teams using the adjoining fields.  At these times the field in unusable for model flying due to the obvious safety issues.

The area outlined in green is approximately 2000' X 500' (about 11 acres) and represents the 'preferred' fly over area.  Much of Camden County remains in its natural state, covered predominantly by pine forests and marsh wetlands.  That is part of the appeal of living here, but finding suitable flying sites, much less one approaching the 'preferred' size is difficult. The green box is shown to give you an idea of how confined our site is.  We learn to fly with intense concentration through-out the entire flight.

The club has begun searching for a new flying site which would be more suitable to large planes, and welcomes any suggestions regarding finding an additional flying area.
