Aircraft association of Westchester (MAAW) is a non-profit
organization dedicated to building and flying
radio-controlled aircraft. If you're considering entering
the hobby, we certainly encourage you to attend one of our
club meetings or to visit us at the MAAW field to see first
hand what "flying R/C" is all about. MAAW is Academy of
Model Aeronautics (AMA) chartered club and for insurance
purposes, all MAAW members are also required to be active
members in the AMA. Our current membership consists of
approximately 150 individuals from virtually every
geographical area of Westchester. Our diverse membership
represents a wide variety of backgrounds, professions, and
ages. MAAW membership is open to all residents of
Westchester County. Proof of residency and a current AMA
membership are required prior to joining and at the time of
each membership renewal. Application forms for both AMA and
MAAW memberships can be obtained from the MAAW membership
director, Fred Penichet, or by printing them
here.
Adobe Reader will be needed to print all the
forms, newsletters
and
files from this web page.
MAAW has two
classes of membership based on age. Senior members are all
members 16 years of age and older. Junior members are club
members under 16 years of age. Senior dues are $50.00 per
year. Junior dues are $15.00 per year. There is also a
one-time Initiation fee of $30.00 for new senior members.
If you are accepted as a club member you will be given a
Frequency flag with your Name and AMA number and the year
of membership. You will use this flag at the field when you
fly and you will also need this flag to enter the
park. If you have questions, you can email
our membership director at membership@maawclub.org
or
come to a meeting.
Club meetings cover a wide range of aviation topics,
demonstrations, and guest speakers and are held monthly,
generally on the third Tuesday, at 7:00 p.m. at the United
Valhalla Methodist Church which is located at 200 Columbus
Avenue Valhalla. For Directions
