The Patuxent Aeromodelers is an AMA sanctioned and FAA FRIA approved RC aircraft club located in St Mary's County Maryland.The club is located within Greenwell State Park at Helwig Field, located on Steer Horn Neck Road in Hollywood, Maryland. The flying site is owned by the State of Maryland and is part o

f Greenwell State Park. We have an ongoing lease agreement with the State that has been beneficial for both parties. Helwig Field features a 300′ x 40′ synthetic runway with a total runway area 650′ x 125′ grass runway with overrun areas at each end of the field. A sunshade area is also on site with picnic tables, and work benches. Our pit area features waist high tables for working on aircraft, knee-high safety fencing to separate the pit area from the runway, and individual pilot flying stations. We fly year round! Guests are encouraged to drop by and meet with the club members and watch the fun and flying. The busiest flying time is Sunday afternoon. You can also send us a message through our website and we can put you in touch with a member to meet you at the field.

Sadly due to adverse forecasted weather tomorrow, we will be cancelling the scheduled fun fly. Please stay tuned for future events, and we appreciate your understanding.

Our next club meeting will be this Thursday, August 6th at the field starting at 6PM. Come out early to squeeze in a few flights beforehand. Also, we'll decide on September's date due to it coming up prior to Labor Day weekend, but expect meetings for the remainder of the year to be on the first Thursday of the month, weather and schedules permitting.

We'll be going over the game plan for runway repairs after getting a quote back on the cost of leveling, and organizing another work day to prep the field. We also have National Model Aviation Day coming up later this month, and can look an opportunity to get something on the calendar as a summer fun fly.

See you there!

Hello everyone! We are looking to start planning ahead for next year’s club events and get-togethers, and we would like to hear from you all!

We’ve seen our members bring out a huge variety of aircraft types and styles of flying, and there are so many more that people may have an interest in but haven’t had an opportunity to try - drone racing, pattern flying, aerial dogfights…

With so many options, we want to ask: What sort of events would YOU especially like to see at our flying field?
