Dear District X AMA Members, (AMA email 06/26/2023)
On my behalf and that of your fellow AMA members, I am asking for everyone’s help in submitting letters to congressional representatives to advocate for better laws in this year’s FAA Reauthorization bill. We have simplified the letter process with the link.
Sincerely,
Greg Stone,
AMA Vice President, District X
BREAKING FIELD NEWS!!! :-)
The Pappas Family has decided to postpone development at our field until sometime in early 2024. This is great news as it gives us another 9-12 months to fly at Johnson Field and also a lot more time to comfortably transition to a new field. We will now be planning some great events going forward into summer so stay tuned. See you at the field.

Flying Field
We have a 600'x40' asphalt runway, four separate helicopter pads, a pit area with tables and chairs, toilet facilities, plenty of parking, and an RV parking area (no facilities).
Johnson Field is located on about 70 acres on the Northeast corner of the intersection of I-15 and State Highway 76. We are about 16 miles North of Escondido on I-15. From I-15, take Highway 76 East towards Pala less than 1/2 mile and turn North on Pankey Rd. Enter the Palomar Flying site through the green gate. On weekdays, members must have a key to unlock the gate. The gate is open on weekends and holidays from about 8am to 1pm or when events are scheduled. The public is welcome to come and visit us during those hours. If you are interested in joining, come out anytime – mornings are the most active period. We have separate flying sites on the property devoted to RC airplanes and RC helicopters.
Club Meeting Location:
At the field the third Saturday of the month
