Casper Airmodelers Assn - Modelers Facility | RC Flying Field Weather
Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Casper, WY, decoded from KDGW, 42 nm away, the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KCPR has no current report: wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.
The club describes an asphalt flying surface. The runway orientation (06/24 + 13/31) was measured from public aerial imagery and drives the live crosswind meter on this page. The site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. Published field hours: No restrictions. One other AMA field sits within 50 miles.
Good flying weather
A manageable breeze for most sport models and trainers; very light foamies may get pushed around.
🌙 It's dark at the field right now. Sunrise 7:35 AM MDT.
Based on KDGW, 42 nm away. Measured at the airport, not the field; conditions at the field may differ. This field's usual station KCPR has no current report, so KDGW is the closest station reporting now.
