This past weekend the Rotary Club of Fitzgerald Ga. hosted it’s annual hamburger fly-in held in conjunction with the Fitzgerald Fall Festival. This year we added a new element to the fly-in experience. On Friday evening, we hosted an outdoor movie fly-in. After the movie pilots were invited to camp out next to their airplane so they would have good start to Saturday’s activities.
We had a great turnout for our first outdoor movie! Pilots arrived Friday evening in time to setup their tents for the night. As the sun set the temperature started dropping just as the movie, Top Gun Maveric started playing. Very shortly afterwards a full moon started rising providing a beautiful setting for our first outdoor movie! Here are few images from Friday’s events.

Pilots, please make your plans to join us next September 28, 2024
at KFZG in Fitzgerld Ga.
