Gore Aero Club
The S D A C was originally the Gore Flight of the Southland Aero Club and up till 1958 was based on an airfield at Knapdale. Membership was 35 active pilots. Due to the lease not being renewed the Gore Flight moved to a strip at McNab on the property of Mr. Bill Cunningham, a person who became quite a figurehead around our club.
The Gore Aero Club is situated 7.5km south of Gore on the Gore-Mataura Highway (SH1) on a 100-acre airfield owned by the Gore District Council. There are three grass runways, the main runway 01/19 is 1270m long, with shorter crossing runway vectors 06/24 and 12/30. No landing fees are payable and plenty of tie-down space is available for those staying. Landing lights are available by arrangement. Also, BP Avgas, Mogas & Jet-A1 are available by swipe card on the field.
