1954-2009 Rocky Mountain Modeleers
Modeleers Field is our primary field. Located about three miles north of Wellington, CO, this field is
more out of the way than our other site. This makes it much more suitable for larger models. The open
fields surrounding the runway also provide excellent thermals for gliders. An onsite weather station is
available for checking conditions before heading out for a day of flying.
The field features two taxiways, shade shelter, seven pilot stations, and
an overall runway size of 400' x 35'.
The runway consists of two materials. An asphalt portion measuring
250' x 35' makes up the center of the landing surface. This is
augmented by Contech fabric extensions placed on each end of the
asphalt portion. Contech fabric is an
industrial grade landscaping fabric
and is perfectly suitable for
landings.
Take exit 281 off of I-25. Turn
east on Owl Canyon Road, and
then north on County Road 5.
Heading east on Owl Canyon
Road, CR-5 will be the first left
you can make after the
interstate. The field will be on the
East side of County Road 5
