 The Lorain County Radio Control Club is an Academy of Model Aeronautics chartered club, located in Lorain County, Ohio. We have over 100 members of all ages who enjoy the hobby of radio control modeling.   The hobby is good, clean fun for the whole family.

VISITORS WELCOME!

The members of the Lorain County Remote Control flying club consist of real pilots, US Veterans, fathers, mothers, and so on. With that being said all of us here at the club would like to take some time to salute Chesley Sullenberger III  the pilot of the US Airways Airbus A320 Flight 1549, that safely crash landed in the Hudson River saving the lives of more than 150 people on board, and countless others had he crashed into the city limits.

What some people do not realize is that airplanes have a given takeoff weight, and a landing weight, while the airplane is fully fueled and loaded with passengers, crew and luggage, it usually far exceeds the landing weight. In other words most of us have no idea how amazing of a job Chesley Sullenberger III actually did to negotiate a nearly no power turn and landing of such an HUGE airplane like the  Airbus A320.  More than that, he had the awareness of his surroundings and was able to use some very fast thinking and calculating to decide what to do! Most of us will just never realize the impact of his accomplishment on safely landing that plane and saving everyone’s life on the plane, along with the lives of the ones that the plane could have killed if it would have crashed into homes and other buildings.  The majority of our members do know what an amazing feat this was and once again we are proud to have a pilot like Chesley Sullenberger III living and working in the United States.
