BCF Area 52 Flying Field @ Conner Preserve — RC Flying Field Weather
Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Land O Lakes, FL, decoded from KZPH, 16 nm away— the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KBKV has no current report — wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.
The club describes a grass flying surface. The runway orientation (09/27 + 17/35) was measured from public aerial imagery and drives the live crosswind meter on this page. Published field hours: 7:30 AM/DUSK MONDAY-SUNDAY. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
Good flying weather
A manageable breeze for most sport models and trainers; very light foamies may get pushed around.
Based on KZPH, 16 nm away — measured at the airport, not the field. This field's usual station KBKV has no current report, so KZPH is the closest station reporting now.
⚠️ Weather shown is from the nearest full-scale reporting station, not measured at the field. Not for flight decisions — assess wind and sky conditions on site and follow the AMA Safety Code and your club's field rules.
