Great Music Night at Gayndah
——————————————————————————————-
October fly in was far too wet for anyone to fly or drive into Angelfield, We had a good time anyway and the food was great!
Black expansive soils typical of Queensland do not drain well. Most rural airfields in our area are built on ancient river beds.
Mt Perry trip was a treat, good people & good food. Looking forward to the next ‘Christmas In July’

The 2017 February fly in was going to be a scorcher and the planes rolled in early and kept many of us very busy, especially Charlie who worked tirelessly all morning on the BBQ. Thanks again for all those who donated their time to make this special day happen.

Others enjoyed a wine, cheese and art night at the Gayndah Art Gallery on Friday night. . Thank you Gayndah for your hospitality. Thanks to the Big Orange Motel owner for being our taxi guide and driving us over to visit the Gayndah Railway Station where we had the restorer show us several First Class Heritage Railway Dining cars.
