About Us:
103 years ago, following the end of the Great War courageous aviators of the Australian Flying Corps united by their passion for aviation gathered at Royal Society House in Sydney's CBD. Some 18 months later on the 10th November 1920 and under the leadership of Colonel Oswald Watt the NSW Section of the Australian Aero Club received its Certificate of Incorporation.

A few short years later in 1926, we welcomed our first three aircraft thanks to a partnership with the Department of Aviation. As the years went by our passion for aviation soared leading us to outgrow our original home base at Mascot Aerodrome. In 1949, we relocated to Bankstown and established ourselves as one of the largest and most vibrant flying clubs on the Commonwealth.

Throughout this time our spirit and passion for aviation persisted and in 2023 a group of dedicated individuals came together with a shared vision to resurrect and re-establish the Royal Aero Club. Driven by a deep appreciation for our rich history and a commitment to carrying it forward, there is now a renewed sense of purpose to continue our mission as we embrace the future with great enthusiasm shaping the next generation of pilots, leaders, and aviators.
