Welcome to 'A' Mountain Aeroplanes! This site is dedicated to the RC slope flyers of 'A' Mountain in Tucson, Arizona. 'A' Mountain (Sentinel Peak) is located 1 mile west of downtown Tucson. It offers spectacular views of the city and surrounding mountains. Prevailing valley winds are from the southeast in the morning and the northwest in the evening. On Saturday and Sunday afternoons it hosts a regular group of RC slope enthusiasts along with many non-flyers up to enjoy the views.
