Daly Waters
Daly Waters Airfield was a centre for the London to Sydney air race of 1926, a refuelling stop for early Qantas flights to Singapore, a World War II Airforce base and more recently an operational base for joint military manoeuvres. Although the aerodrome was closed to commercial traffic in 1965 the original Qantas hangar still stands, housing exhibits of photographs and equipment from the area's aviation past.
Daly Waters other attraction is a pub where people leave memorabilia such as bank notes, t shirts, photos from around the world. We had a stop there this morning for an early beer.
