Lunch at The Flying Machine Restaurant

Posted by Captain Tedward

My friend, Eric, lives in the Atlanta area and we go way back. In fact, it has been 21 years since I last saw him. Well, Kim and I, never needing an excuse to fly, headed out to the airport Saturday morning and flew to KLZU (Gwinnett County Airport-Briscoe Field) in Lawrenceville, Georgia. We met Eric there and ate at The Flying Machine. The restaurant is right there on the airport. In fact, you can taxi right up to the patio and park! Great food and great company. We spent several hours getting re-acquainted before heading back home. Was just a fabulous way to spend a Saturday. I am not posting most of the pictures from the airport since it is in the running for a future Airport Spotlight.

As you can see, we parked just a few feet away from where we ate outside.

Was cloudy on the way home.


About to fly through one.


Ever wondered what it looks like inside a cloud? :)

Love the picture on final approach to runway 7 - guess Kim was taking that picture as I was taking the flyover pictures. Had a great time, and looking forward to catching up with y'all in Savannah/Bluffton soon!
