Joining us

Before applying to join the club we recommend that you visit the Letchworth Rugby Club site on a Sunday afternoon where flying normally starts around 2pm. There you can watch us flying and chat with members to find out what we are like and which models are suitable for our flying sites. If you decide to join then take a look at the Club rules, Code of Practice and Legal pages on this website.

Membership fees and applying to join

The club year runs from 1st November to 31st October, and the annual subscription for 2020/21 is as follows:

Seniors over 16 years of age:	£15.00 plus BMFA membership of £38.00
Juniors under 16 years of age:	£8.00 plus BMFA membership of £17.00
One off joining fee (Senior and Junior)	£5.00

The annual LMAS subscription is halved for new members joining from October onwards, and BMFA membership costs also reduce from July onwards (click here for the current rates).

To make an application please download the application form, complete and send it together with payment to the Secretary at the address shown on the form. Payment is requested by a direct online transfer (details for the bank transfer are on the form; please use your name as the payment reference). Alternatively send a cheque to the Treasurer made out to Letchworth Model Aeronautical Society.

Important note – As of February 2021 the LMAS is a BMFA affiliated club. All LMAS members must also hold BMFA membership; this can be taken out directly with the BMFA (preferred option) via their website or over the phone, or through the LMAS itself (see application form). Members cannot fly at the Rugby Club or Wilbury Hills sites until they have BMFA membership in place!
