About Us

The Chicago Model Masters has a history that spans 6 decades. Over the years however, one thing has remained constant: Our love for Model Aircraft. Whether it be Radio Control, Control Line, or just plain building, we have always had a deep and abiding passion for the hobby. For a narrative history of the Chicago Model Masters, click here.

The age of our membership ranges from teens to senior citizens and the experience level varies from total beginners to modelers with over 50 years of experience. We are also proud to count an original member of The Tuskegee Airmen, Dan Williamson, among our membership. (Click here to learn more about Dan)  We are active participants in local, regional, and national events and our members are well-known in the modeling community.

Our flying field is Kickapoo Woods, located at the West side of Halsted Street at 144th Street, in Riverdale Illinois.  We routinely hold family events and we welcome visitors to come and see us in action. We meet on the first Saturday of every month at Saint James Church, 11760 S. Lowe in Chicago. Meetings start at 7PM.
