23.01.2022 Kyneton Airfield Master Plan Adopted At last night’s Macedon Ranges Council Meeting (22/07/2020) 8 years of working collaboratively and constructively with Coun...cil resulted in the adoption of the Kyneton Airfield Master Plan. This is a wonderful outcome for the Kyneton Aero Club and the local community; building on the 2014 Council decision that the Kyneton Airfield is to remain permanently at its current location. The Master Plan provides for a number of amenity and operational improvements to the facilities at the Kyneton Airfield for all users, including Emergency Services; and the Aero Club looks forward to working with Council to implement the Master Plan initiatives.

22.01.2022 Australia's Biggest Morning Tea - Another great community event that was hosted by the members of the Kyneton Aero Club. Through the efforts of everyone we raised over $2200 for the Anti Cancer Council. Well done to everyone that came along and contributed.

19.01.2022 Kyneton Airfield and the Kyneton Aero Club again show their importance to firefighting efforts protecting the Macedon Ranges community by providing a base for "...hot refuelling" operations of rotary wing Helitac and Firebird aircraft working on the Pastoria fires over the past 2 days, a secure location to pre-deploy these assets to on high risk days, and much appreciated crew standby and rest facilities.

19.01.2022 2017 Aero Club of the Year - Kyneton Aero Club The Australian Division of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and Australian Flying are pleased to announced the winners of the 2017 Wings Awards. We would like to thank all those who sent in nominations, and congratulate these very worthy winners. Kyneton Aero Club - Aero Club of the Year... Founded in October 1966 by an enthusiastic and dedicated group of airmen and aviation supporters from around the picturesque and historic township of Kyneton, Kyneton Aero Club (KAC) has a reputation for encouraging the arts, skills and pleasures of private flying, flying training, airmanship, camaraderie, service and support of the community. Since the Aero Club was established in 1966, it has had an extremely active history in flight training, from ab-initio through to advanced ratings, flight reviews, recreational ratings conversions to GA and more. But over the years, KAC has hosted many aviation and community service events, well known in Victoria especially for their annual Australia's Biggest Morning Tea, which has raised over $35,000 for the Cancer Council over eight years. KAC also hosts a Gourmet Hot Dog fly-in to benefit Neuroscience Australia, supports FunFlight, the Air Force Cadets and other aero club events. In times of bushfires in the Macedon Ranges, KAC has supported both helicopter and fixed-wing firefighting assests with refueling, water pick-up, crew rotation and rest facilties as well as command and communication assistance. To the aviation community, KAC provides a very friendly and supportive drop-in place. Kyneton Aero Club epitomises everything an aero club should be, and that has made them well qualified as the 2017 Aero Club of the Year.

04.01.2022 The Macedon Ranges Shire Council has released the 2019 Draft Kyneton Airfield Master Plan for feedback at: https://www.mrsc.vic.gov.au//Have-your-say-draft-Kyneton-A. It is imperative that Members, family, friends, and anyone that values all of the benefits the Kyneton Airfield brings to the community, make a positive submission to this Draft. We cannot allow those opposed to the Airfield to claim a hollow numbers victory by coercing people into signing petitions on the basis of misinformation such as has been recently published in the supposed Fact Sheets. Submissions close Sunday 22 September, but please don’t put it off until later and not get around to it, the Airfield needs your support.

02.01.2022 If you were not able to make it to Kyneton to join in the celebration of the Kyneton Aero Club’s 50th Anniversary in April then take the time to see a little of the action you missed out on at the Spread Your Wings airshow with Carlos and the team from The Flying Show. http://www.c31.org.au/episodes/9665
