Our Flying field

Our flying field is a 4 acre facility located on a 600 acre farm in eastern Hanover County. The site is located approximately 15 miles east of the center of Richmond on U.S. Route 360.

Access to the  flying field is via a farm road leading off of U.S. Rt. 360. The field is marked by a sign on the south side of Rt. 360 (right-hand side traveling East). Follow the farm road from Rt. 360. The road makes a sharp left turn. Continue on the farm road until you see a second sign marking the entrance to the field.

The field is open from sun rise to sunset daily. Visitors are always welcome.

Directions to the Field

The field is located approximately 8-miles east of Mechanicsville on U.S. Rt. 360 (Mechanicsville Turnpike). Traveling east on Rt. 360, you will pass Spring Run road and then begin to drop down into an area known as Broaddus' Flats. The entrance to the field is located at the fourth (4th) cross-over past Spring Run Road and is marked by a sign.
