    COLUMBIANA, Ohio (WKBN) — The Mahoning County Model Club held a fun fly and swap meet event at Shaker Woods Field in Columbiana on Saturday.

    Members of the club flew the sky with RC-controlled airplanes while others watched.

    The club has two fly dates each year and has about 40 members. They fly out of two fields — Shaker Woods and another in Struthers.

    Jim Mestichelli, president of the club, described the event’s atmosphere.

    “Enthusiasm and everybody getting together like — enjoying RC planes you know, building them, programming, flying them — like interests,” he said.

    The next event is scheduled for Sept. 14.
