Welcome to the Hinterland Model Flying Club
HINTERLAND MODEL FLYING CLUB (HMFC) is a club of about 100 members with ages varying from 11 to 92 and multiple different flying and building experience.
Model aircraft flown by the members including powered fixed wing (both electric and nitro models), helicopters and gliders.
Until the end of 2025 the HMFC club is at Coomera on the north end of the Gold Coast and the strip is available every day of the week.
We are presently located on Shipper Drive, in Coomera but after some 38 years at this site we will be moving to a new site from 1 Jan 2026. At the moment we don't know if the new field will be fit to fly on from 1 Jan 2026 but we are working to try and make this possible. If the new site is not ready at 1 Jan 2026 then we may be able to use an alternative field as a temporary measure until such time as our new field is available.
Experienced pilots and instructors are on hand to help beginners and experienced pilots alike with a good sense of camaraderie, fun and a shared passion for flying. The club welcomes anyone interested in learning more about this hobby to contact us and arrange a visit to the field. We also welcome members of other flying clubs to visit and fly with us. Note that the HMFC is an affiliate of the Model Aeronautical Association of Queensland (MAAQ)
