You have several fields to choose from around here, All are within about 30-40 mins of Pensacola.
Bronson Field in west pensacola(old navy field)
Fritz Field in the Buelah area
Spencer Field in Pace(navy)
Santa Rosa field in Milton (navy)
Holley Field in ...Holley-Navarre(navy)
Harold Field west of Milton, (also navy)
You must be a member of Northwest Florida Modelers (and AMA) to fly at these fields. It's only about 30 bucks a year. The Navy ones are only availible on the weekends and holidays. I fly at Santa Rosa And Spencer once in a blue moon. I fly about three times a week at a cropdusters strip here in Jay. Its about 45 mins to an hour north of NAS. No Club, No AMA, No Rules, No problem!
The Club Website is www.nfmi.org

Dang right Chris!! About 2500x150ft grass runway. Want to fly North-South? Go for it. East-West? Do it. Want to tap the rudder on top of your trailer? It's your trailer, give her hell!! As long as you dont scare the hell out of us and fly overhead its all good!
