Welcome to the Neumünster Aviation Club. We have been operating the Neumünster Airfield (EDHN) in the heart of Schleswig-Holstein for over 70 years. Student pilots and experienced pilots experience their shared hobby here in the areas of gliding, motor flying and model flying. We are a flying club where you can learn to fly. Of course, we also take guests up in the air on trial flights. Pilots and visitors can also reach many beautiful destinations from our airfield. Our efforts to operate our airfield and aviation in a sustainable and socially responsible manner are also very important to us.

Safe and accident-free model aircraft operations must be ensured by observing the following regulations: The club's obligations include ensuring safe flight operations. In principle, only pilots who can prove that they have taken out model aircraft liability insurance with the DMFV or DAEC may participate in model aircraft operations. The first full member must inform the Neumünster airfield flight control (Tel.: 04321 / 62256) of the start of flight operations. If there are three or more pilots, an adult flight director must be appointed, who will be in the flight director's office.
