Converse Flying Eagles - Converse Airport — RC Flying Field Weather

Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Amboy, IN, decoded from KMZZ, 11 nm away— the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KOKK 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 site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. Published field hours: 7 a.m. to sundown 7 days a week Two additional concrete runways available. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
