Our club has been around since the early 80s. Started as a special interest group just for Giant Scale. Since the hobby started slowing down and the membership was the lowest ever,we had to change up and let the sport flyers/trainer flyers join up.Hoping they will someday fly Giant Scale. Now we have over 30 members still not all Giant Scale but thats cool !!

Cya..

Hey Frank, Stan from the Jersey Coast Sport Fliers here. We are a 200+ member organization in Monmouth County New Jersey which is about mid-state close to the Jersey Shore. Our club is made up of mostly fixed wing aircraft but the helicopter contingent is growing. There has also been a push in the direction of electrics but not much giant scale. Our club has been around for 25+ years and we've been an AMA Gold Level Leader Club for the last six. We were also the host of the AMA District II Fly-In a couple of years ago. Next time you're in the area stop in and say hello.

HEY FRANK: Let me be the first from Southern Air RC,Vanceboro N.C.to congradulate you on your thread startup.I follow the circus on the Giants and they are a great group of people.! My advice is to post pictures,pictures and more pictures. A few knowledgeable pilots liike yourself and a few good BSers like me and your sucess will be unlimited.I see Belvidere is in beautiful country close to the Delaware river and tne Appalachian Trail. I'm sure your fellow flyers around the state will answer your call and join in. I would imagine guys on the west side of the river will be interested too.Good Luck!!! Glen Wayne

Hey guys, Lafe here. I am also a NJJF member, and live in Hackettstown, NJ. I am currently in school down at West Virginia University, so I have been flying down here during the school year. What are you guys up to? Might be a slight change of plans, might be headed back up to NJ again for the summer instead of staying down here. Means I can rip it up again this summer with all of you!
