ANYONE with an interest in aviation, restored vehicles or radio-controlled model aircraft needs to get along to Port Macquarie Airport this Sunday, 27 October.
The Hastings District Flying Club is conducting its annual open day and there is plenty to see.
The club is proud of its 55-year history and keen to show off its facilities. There will be static displays depicting club activities and history in the clubhouse and information concerning the recreational aviation flying school in the hangar.
Aircraft on display range from the motorised hang-glider to the L39 Albatross jet to home-built aircraft and an historic De Havilland Chipmunk. The club is waiting for a new Flight Design CTLS aircraft from Germany but will still have its Foxbat aircraft available for trial flights.
The Hastings Radio Modellers will have several of its radio-controlled model aircraft on show and car enthusiasts will be catered for with several beautifully restored vehicles from from Hastings Auto Restorers.
Food and drink will also be on sale.
Visitors should avoid parking in the terminal carpark and use the grassed area to the north of Oliver Drive as you enter the airport precinct.
