The Aeromodelers Of Acadiana (AMA Club #321) is located in Acadiana, Louisiana and founded in 1966. They have grown to over 80 members, 12 of whom have earned their turbine waivers. Their main runway is a high grade grass runway 900' x 100'. Their facilities include a huge parking lot, 13 camper sites, and a large pavilion with electricity. Club member, Jase Dussia, won gold at the France Extreme Flight Championships (FXFC) in August of 2022.
They have an annual warbird event in March and the "Extreme Flight 3D Cajun Huckfest" event in October. Over the years, they have raised considerable funds for the community, including $5,000 for Boy Scouts, $5,800 for LARKS in Sulphur and $1,600 for WARPS in Berwick for hurricane damage.
