The Manning River Aero Club was formed in 1960, having transferred its training base from the Old Bar Airstrip to the then new Taree Airport. Initially, training was conducted in the DH-82 Tiger Moth before the advent of the Cessna 150. Currently we have two training aircraft Cessna 172 and 152.
We are a member of the Royal Federation of Aero Clubs of Australia, which has a code of reciprocal rights with a network of Aero Clubs that extends throughout Australia. You may also have the opportunity to represent the Club or your Country at Light Aircraft Championships which are organised by the Federation.
The Aero Club is a non-profit making organisation, which means that any surplus funds are re-invested in the Club, its facilities and aeroplanes, ensuring that they are the best available.
