To become a full member of the Sunday Flyers, a $40 initiation fee plus $30 annual dues will be required for the first year of membership.  Thereafter, only annual dues will be required.The amount will depend on your age.

 
You can start the process as an Associate Member for $15. (Form)   It will be applied to the $70 first year fee.  The remaining $55 can be paid at future meetings as explained below. 


A minimum of three meetings is required to be voted into the club. You can pay the first $15 any time, then $25 at your first or second meeting and the final $30 at your third meeting.  introPic3Every year thereafter, you must maintain membership in the AMA  and continue to pay the Sunday Flyers annual dues of $30.  When you reach the age of 62, your dues will reduce to $20 and when you reach the age of 65 and have been a member for the preceding five consecutive years, your Sunday Flyers’ dues are free.
 

In the fall/winter, we normally meet the third Wednesday of every month at the Grange Elementary School, 2000 Church Rd., Dundalk.  Meetings start between 6:30 and 7:00 pm.  During the summer months, we meet outdoors at

Bird Field, 800 Bird River Beach Rd 21220.  Put “900 Bird River Beach Rd” into Mapquest to get the proper directions.  http://www.mapquest.com/directions/main.adp

You can, of course, drop in anytime at the field while awaiting your AMA membership.  We’ll get you hooked up with a flight instructor.  Our instructors require no fee.  They do it voluntarily to further the hobby and because it’s fun to bring someone in and teach them to fly.

To be able to fly alone (solo), you will be required to take off and land three consecutive times in the same session, all on your own, under the (distant) watchful eye of an instructor, without stalling the engine or crashing.
