Over 50 years of passion for flight
The Guadalajara Aero Club was founded in 1973 thanks to the initiative and enthusiasm of a group of aviation enthusiasts. From those first flights in Valbuena to our current headquarters in Robledillo de Mohernando, we have built a history marked by a passion for flight and a commitment to sports aviation.
The early years were linked to the estate of Colonel Rafael Borrás Tornay and the impetus of Lieutenant General Francisco Vives Camino, our first president. Their ties to the Royal Aero Club of Spain were essential to getting the initial infrastructure underway and consolidating the project.
With the move to Robledillo de Mohernando, a new stage of growth began. During the 1980s and 1990s, our school trained numerous pilots, and the airfield hosted important aeronautical training projects.
Today we continue to evolve with the incorporation of new technologies, security systems, and advanced training tools. We look to the future prepared for the arrival of new ultralights and electric aircraft, keeping the passion that has been with us since 1973 intact.
Making aviation a passion within everyone's reach
We are a non-profit organization whose main objective is to facilitate access to sports aviation and promote aeronautical culture, paying special attention to new generations.
Through our flight school and the management of the Robledillo Aerodrome, we work to offer a safe, welcoming, and professional environment in which to learn, enjoy, and share the passion for flying.
Our commitment also looks to the future. We are committed to a sustainable development model, innovation, and the incorporation of new technologies that will guarantee the future of light aviation for decades to come.
An Aero Club managed by and for its members
The Board of Directors of the Guadalajara Aeroclub consists of nine members and is based on a participatory, democratic governance model that is open to the incorporation of new ideas.
Any full member who meets the requirements may freely and individually submit their candidacy. In addition, one-third of the Board is renewed each year, promoting continuous evolution and balancing experience with new perspectives.
Terms of office last three years and are subject to reelection limits. The presidency is decided by a vote among the elected members, reinforcing a leadership model based on consensus and teamwork.
Our Bylaws establish the operating principles of the Aeroclub as a private, nonprofit sports association. They guarantee equality among members and ensure that the organization's resources and assets are used to promote recreational aviation.
