Saturday July 16 Fredericksburg, TX (T82)
http://www.hangarhotel.com/
This was the most requested destination for a fly-in on the survey and we’ll lunch at the Airport Diner. It’s a classic 1940's - 1950's diner, located next door to the Hangar Hotel and immediately adjacent to the Gillespie County Airport-T82. From the booths, you can watch airplanes and other aircraft come
and go while enjoying great sandwiches, breakfast all day, and the daily Chef's Blue Plate Specials. The Diner is not just a place to grab some food, but rather a unique atmosphere to relax and enjoy a good meal while reliving the past. And you never know what you might see land just outside the window!
