The Batangas
Aeromasters Radio Control Assocition (BARADAS) was organized
on September 2 2001 by a group of enthusiastic modelers. Our group
includes 23 regular members and 3 honorary members. Meetings is
held every second Sunday of the month. Visitors are encouraged to
visit and observe our meetings.
Our club offers the following:
- A fantastic place to fly, with
some of the best people to fly with.
- We share our grass field with full
scale aircraft. On weekends, it wont be unusual to witness a couple
of flights by our full scale pilots in their clipped wing J3 Cub,
PA 22 Tri-Pacer, Citabria, to name a few.
- The field is well maintained by
its owner, Manny Barradas, who has been our gracious host since
modelers discovered this RC haven.
- Club members and their families
are welcome to use the club house and pool facilities which are
part of the airfield complex (again thanks to our host, Manny
Barradas).
- Top-notch flight instructors are
available for beginners.
- Constrcution help and advice is
always available to any member in need of help.
- Participation in club organized
events at various times of the year including the Barradas Cup
which runs every 30th of November to coincide with Mr. Barradas'
birthday.
In short, this club offers an excellent
place for people to come together to help each other and to have
the best time enjoying the hobby we love.
To get to our field,
follow directions bellow:
Our
field is located at Barangay
Santor, Tanauan Batangas, Philippines. From Makati, take South
Luzon Expressway (SLEX) all the way to the end (Exit 50). Exit heading
towards Batangas. About 7 Kilometers from Exit 50, take a right
to enter STAR highway. Take first exit (SAMBAT Exit) and make a
right turn going to Talisay/Tagaytay. About 2 Kilometers ahead,
a yellow sign which reads SUNRAY'S nursery will be visible. Slow
down, and be ready to take a right at the next road where a BARADAS
AIRSTRIP sign is displayed. Follow this road up to the end where
you will see an iron gate with World War II vintage 20mm machineguns
mounted on each side. Enter this gate and proceed to the next gate
which opens into the grass field.
