Queens Flight Club 1 — RC Flying Field Weather

Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Queens, NY, decoded from the nearest reporting station KLGA, 3.1 nm away — 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. Its FAA fixed-site agreement altitude is 200 ft AGL — an agreement value, not an airspace clearance. Activities listed by the club: Control Line, First Person View, Multi-Rotor. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
