Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Newton, KS, decoded from KAAO, 18 nm away, the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KEWK has no current report: wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.

The site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. Published field hours: No gas or fuel aircraft on Sunday mornings, otherwise no restriction.. 11 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
