The club was started in 1989 with the help of people working in Millington and modelers of other clubs. With an agreement by Browning Farris, they were allowed to use the field on Sykes Rd. Rocky Krantz, Victor Laurent, Roy Wright and the Brown brothers, just to name a few, started flying off of the road that ran from north to south on the west end of the airfield. They did not have awnings or tables as we do today. However, by the second season the club membership had grown to approximately 12 members. Several of these members worked in construction and along with Browning Farris donated materials to build the awning and pour the concrete pad. Some of the names are written in the concrete at the west end of the pavilion. As the membership continued to grow and help the progress, the club really started to evolve with the establishment of Pylon racing and Fun-Fly contest thanks to one of the members, Jim Prillman. The Millington Barnstormers recently named their airfield after Mr. Jim Prilliman (Prilliman Field). This club is the result of a bunch of great people. Modelers and individuals who wanted a nice environment to promote friendship, interests, and participation in the R/C hobby.
