monthly fly-in<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>June 11, 2013<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>by Ralph and Deb Percy, Burnett Flyers Inc<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you live in the South Burnett and were wondering where all the small planes were coming from over the weekend, here&#8217;s the answer:<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, the monthly fly-in put on by the Burnett Flyers at Murgon&#8217;s Angelfield airstrip attracted close to thirty planes and over sixty hungry patrons eager for a piping hot breakfast.<\/p>\n<p>It was a very busy time for club members. who did the cooking and offered a friendly country atmosphere to visitors who came from all over south east Queensland for the event.<\/p>\n<p>Some flyers even came in on Friday to camp under wings of their aircraft and join club members in a friendly campfire barbecue the night before.<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, flying was the hot topic of conversation and a lively comradeship quickly sprang up between the visitors and Burnett Flyers members.<\/p>\n<p>Several frequent visitors are commercial airline pilots who fly small aircraft for fun, and visitor numbers are expected to increase over coming months as the weather improves.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the visitors commented positively on the newly-remodeled Operations Centre, which was designed &#8220;by flyers for flyers&#8221; and gives a great view of operations at the strip.<\/p>\n<p>The club plans on offering real-time weather reporting to the public on the Internet when funding becomes available.<\/p>\n<p>A special highlight of the weekend&#8217;s event was when the club was given a flying aircraft for its members to use.<\/p>\n<p>You can follow the Burnett Flyers&#8217;
