NOTE: These flying sites are not sanctioned by any club, so you're on your own for insurance and frequency control.
| "B Slab" is the old Uniroyal test track. The runway is a large piece of concrete which cars used to slide on. To get there, go to the intersection of Sierra Highway and Avenue B. Take the dirt road south-west which will lead to the slab. There are no off or on ramps for Avenue B at Highway 14, so you'll have to go to Sierra Highway. There are a few small trees on the site but they're not near the runway, so don't count on any shade unless you take your own.

|
| "85th and K" is at, you guessed it - 85th Street West and Avenue K. 85th Street is just a dirt road in this area, so when you get halfway between 80th and 90th you'll want to turn north onto 85th. The road will lead right to the runway, so watch out if others are flying! Park in the field just south of the runway. This runway has been used by ultralights, so watch for full-scale aircraft.

|
| "110th and J" is another place, and I believe flyers have been using the actual road of Avenue J just west of 110th Street West as the runway.
|
|
| "Vince's Place" is club member Vince's house. He has a nice graded runway on his property behind his house. To use this field you must call Vince first at (661) 256-3637. To get there go west on Rosamond Blvd, and just past 110th Street West you'll see the house on the right.
