Membership

QUAX the club was founded in February 2006 at the Hamm Lippewiesen airfiled in Germany and counts about 700 members to date. Mote than 100 are active pilots, male and female. Our mission is the upkeep of historic airplanes and to enable peolpe interested in aviation history a closer look at how planes were made and flown in the good old days.

"Our Biplanes will ot pick up dust in a museum-we fly them"

The operation of 18 historic planes owed by the club is of course our main mission. But just as important is the collection of old documents, manuals, parts, work descriptions or just the preservation of old but special knowledge before it might be forgotten. We consider this an integral part of our mission, after all, there is no use for the old aircraft once nobody knows how to fix them anymore.

members

Our members can be split up into 3 basic groups:

Pilots, who love classic planes but do not have their own. Pilots have our club planes at their disposal after they pass a thorough training to get them ready fot the operation of classic planes.
