OUR Model Aviation Club - Maclay St — RC Flying Field Weather

Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Sylmar, CA, decoded from KVNY, 7 nm away— the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KWHP has no current report — wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.

12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.

GOOD

Good flying weather

A manageable breeze for most sport models and trainers; very light foamies may get pushed around.

Based on KVNY, 7 nm away — measured at the airport, not the field. This field's usual station KWHP has no current report, so KVNY 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.
