Welcome to VSMA


Welcome to the home of Volunteer State Model Aviators, AMA Charter Club 3961. We are a growing club with members of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels. Originally formed in Springfield, TN, VSMA now resides in Cedar Hill, about 15 minutes from Springfield and 5 minutes from exit 19 off I-24. We maintain a 500 foot by 100 foot grass runway with one of the largest, most wide open flying fields in Tennessee.

Jim Bush Fly-In Review

The first Jim Bush Fly-in is in the books. Everyone agrees Jim would have loved the event and probably can't believe we named and held the event in his honor.

The fly-in was a huge success! The weather threatened to wash out the event but by the time Saturday arrived, the skies turned clear, sunny, and blue. The wind probably supressed turnout on Saturday, but the wind died down on Sunday and Sunday became an unofficial extension of the fly-in. The pilot fees, raffle tickets, and concessions raised over $1,000 for the club.
