Our flying field is at 2987 Gerritsen Ave, between Seba and Lois Avenues, in the Gerritsen Beach neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY. Look for the green NYC Parks sign reading Marine Park Model Airplane Field and the gate stenciled R.C.S.M.P FLYING FIELD; the driveway is normally locked to everyone except members.
