Swansea MFC caters for model aircraft flyers mainly in the Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot areas. The Club currently has approximately 40 members who fly IC, electric and gas turbine models and to a lesser extent helicopters, gliders and control-line. The club is affiliated to the British Model Flying Association (BMFA) and all members must be a member of the BMFA to be covered by insurance.

The club flying site is situated on Garn Goch Common, Penllergaer, Swansea. (See How To Find Us) It is a flat field site, unfortunately without storage or recreational facilities. Members normally meet to fly, weather permitting, on a Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from about 11am. The only scheduled meeting held by the Club is the AGM normally held in November of each year.

New competent members are welcome but any novice requiring training should contact the secretary or attend at the site to ensure instructors are available.

Members are encouraged to work towards obtaining the BMFA ‘A’ certification of competence. Instruction is not given for helicopter flying. The majority of club members and instructors fly Mode 2 so it is important that you seek advice from us before you purchase a transmitter or a model to ensure you obtain suitable equipment. The club does not have models or equipment to lend new members.
