Membership

Tin Can Bay Model Flying Club (TCBMFC) is comprised of a large, diverse community of modelers with a wide variety of interests. Here you can share your passion and interest of aero-modelling with others, visit and socialize with friends (both new and old), and have an opportunity to learn from the vast experience and knowledge of our members.

Membership is open to all and includes access to the clubs’ facilities and flying fields. TCBMFC is affiliated with the Model Aeronautical Association of Australia (MAAA) and the Model Aeronautical Association of Queensland (MAAQ ) which is the largest aeromodelling organisation in Australia and Queensland respectively, and encourage and supports Australians to enjoy aeromodelling in a safe and fun environment.
