Just scroll to the lower half of this page, fill in the blanks and click on Submit. You can pay by cash, check or Paypal using the form below. Please don’t mail cash. Checks can be mailed to William Reape, 234 Kildare Court, O’Fallon, MO 63366. If you prefer to fill out a paper form, please contact either the club Secretary (secretary@phantomflyersrc.com) or club President (president@phantomflyersrc.com) and we will supply a paper form for you to fill out and mail to the club secretary. Note that either form has a space for your FAA Registration number and expiration date. The reason for this non-standard information is that our flying field is within controlled airspace of Lambert airport. Because of that, we have to have a special airspace authorization issued by the FAA. Part of the requirements of that FAA authorization are that we maintain a list of users of the airspace and their FAA Registration numbers. On the other hand, that authorization is how we are permitted to fly to 2000 feet.
For New Members Only: New applications submitted after 1 July of the current year will receive dues free for the following year.

Access to Flying Field: All club members will be given a key which unlocks both the gate cable and the restroom facility. The club Secretary is responsible for making sure all current club members have a key. If you need a key, contact the club Secretary using the email link above.
Membership Cards: Since the use of 2.4 GHz has become widespread there is little reason for going to the expense and effort of making membership cards. Consequently the club no longer issues memberships cards. If you wish to fly 72 MHz or 6 meter Ham band, please use the frequency board and any handy card with your name on it.
