Apparently Miata owners aren’t the only ones who like go to a destination for no other reason than to eat breakfast, aircraft folks do it too. Since 1938 (with a couple of years off for WWII) every other weekend private pilots from all over have met at various airports in South Carolina on Sunday morning for breakfast and fellowship.
There are several folks in the MMC who have, or have had airplanes, and with there being no official Miata Club breakfast for the month, one of them invited the car club to come out and dine with the plane club. And we did. Seven Miatas come out for breakfast, which was more than they had aircraft fly in. While the low overcast skies and threat of a storm front passing through kept the planes at bay, the unseasonably warm December day brought out the cars.
From the South Carolina Breakfast Club home page: This is a club that has no dues — you join by attending your first meeting, and “the only rule is to fly safe.” So, just like that, Donna and I are members in another club. Maybe we should buy us an airplane…
