The Model Aeronautical Association of Australia (MAAA) is the largest aero-modelling organisation in Australia. We encourage and support all Australians to safely enjoy the adrenalin rush of a fun flight.
For over 75 years, the MAAA has been Australia’s largest flying organisation, focusing on giving members the best flying experience. This proud heritage and the shared knowledge amongst our 10,000+ members and 330+ clubs, allows aero-modellers to soar too greater, more thrilling heights, while allowing us to continue to innovate and protect the future of our sport.
Australian flying fields are equal and in many cases better than those enjoyed by our modelling counterparts overseas. All of this has been achieved through the hard work of past and present members.
As a leading expert, the MAAA help clubs provide the best advice, instructors and knowledge base so you can learn to fly and enjoy your sport. You can undertake pilot training, get your wings, or even become an Instructor or Inspector!
MAAA clubs are about fun flying, camaraderie and community.
As an MAAA member you will have access to:
- Better training programs and a Wings proficiency scheme to get you up to speed and in the air faster.
- Largest range of modelling disciplines from radio control, aerobatics, jets to FPV flying which the MAAA holds a CASA Exemption, ensuring our members can operate outdoors (just to name a few).
