The Pomona Valley Model Airplane Club is a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement and enjoyment of R/C model airplane flying. The club is composed of approximately 400 members and currently enjoys two flying fields.

The club has a field in Prado Park and another field at the old Norton AFB.

The Prado field is approximately 800 feet long with enough pit area  to support 30 fliers.

Prado Park is part of the Prado Flood Control Basin and is located 5 miles northwest of Corona and 3 miles southwest of Chino.

Additionally, picnic facilities are available at the site. The field is leased from the San Bernardino

Parks and Recreation and the club has a 5 year lease with 5 year options. The site should be secure from encroachment since the entire area is part of the Prado Flood Control basin.

We at PVMAC look forward to a site that will be there for not only us to enjoy, but for the enjoyment of future generations.

The Norton field is about 400 feet long and can support about 15 members at a time.
