ADVANTAGES of joining CRCM
Chicagoland Radio Control
Modelers, Inc. was founded in 1948 by current member Frank Madl,
who conceived the original spring nose landing gear. He submitted
the idea to Flying Models magazine and received a $5.00 award for
it in 1957.
Our current flying site is the club field's seventh location. The original site was near the Glenview Naval Air Station. Next, it moved to an area south of O'Hare airport near the railroad switching station, then to an actual O'Hare runway during O'Hare's construction. The field was then moved way north to a Nike missile command base around Half-Day.
Finally, it was relocated to the Busse Woods area: first north of Higgins where the lake is now, then south of Higgins, and last to the current location south of Golf Road.
