| The South African Model Aircraft Association is the governing body for Aero Modelling. The SAMAA is delegated by the South African Civil Aviation Authority through RAASA, and the Aero Club of South Africa, to provide a membership service to those interested in the building and flying of all forms of model aircraft. Clubs: There are nearly 300 clubs and flying sites in South Africa, where members of the SAMAA may practice their hobby and sport. The major metropolitan centres are well served with a variety of clubs. There are also clubs in the bigger towns, and even clubs and flying sites in rural locations. Recreational Flying: The majority of members are recreational fliers (Sunday Fliers), content to go to their local club, fly for fun or relaxation, and share their hobby experiences with fellow club members on a social level. Competition Flying: Many clubs host competition flying events, where regional, provincial and national competitions are held in various FAI classes. South Africa is well represented at FAI World Games for these various classes. |
