About this field

Humboldt Aero Modelers fly at City Airport Samoa (Samoa Field), 900 New Navy Base Road in Samoa, on the peninsula across Humboldt Bay from Eureka. The site has an asphalt runway and pits and is an FAA-recognized FRIA site.

The property is shared with other users, so flying is limited to weekend dates arranged each year with property management. The site is gated; AMA membership and a club sponsor are required, so contact the club before visiting.
