PDQ Flyers
PDQ Flyers is a MAAC (Model Aeronautics Association of Canada) affiliated club which means that flying members must also maintain membership of MAAC. Members must follow both the MAAC rules and PDQ Flyers rules. Being part of MAAC provides us with insurance that protects the club and its members, provides us a representation at local, national and international government levels, and links us with other model flying clubs around the country.
If you are thinking of joining or renewing your membership with the PDQ Flyers and have any questions before you do so, email our Vice President, Allan MacMillan at vp@pdqflyers.com.
To join the club please send an email to the Webmaster at webmaster@pdqflyers.com with your full name and MAAC number so that it can be registered in our system. Once your MAAC number has been registered you will get a confirmation email alerting you that the online application can now be completed.
Note that although an application for membership will be accepted if your MAAC number is dormant, new membership cards will only be issued to members when their MAAC membership has been actived for the Membership year requested.
New and renewing members begin the process by entering their MAAC number and last name in the Member Access section of this page. Clicking on the Submit button will take you to a new page where you will be able to enter and or update your club profile. Click the button at the bottom of page to take you to the application page where you can apply for or renew your membership.
On the application page you can apply/renew your membership and then, if you wish, pay online. This payment service is a PayPal facility but it does not require that you have a PayPal account; you can use a credit card as well or you can pay the Treasurer directly by cash or check at a meeting or by mail.
Note: There is no fee for Junior Members, so they should decline the payment option.
