Recent stories

The Classic is being held at the Toowoomba Aerodrome on Sunday 21 May from 8.30am until 2.30pm.

This is the 23rd year of the popular David Hack Classic which is run by the Rotary Club of Toowoomba North in conjunction with Aerotec and with assistance of the Toowoomba Regional Council.

The day attracts some 400 vehicles and 30 to 40 aircrafts with some 4,000 people attending.

Many classic car owners and car clubs make the David Hack Classic a must-attend event. The mix of classic vehicles and warbirds make for a unique atmosphere and this year the Jensen Car Club will hold its Club National Rally.

The WWII P51 Mustang “the Flying Undertaker” and the L39 Albatross jet fighter are set to be popular as well as the North American T-28 Trojans and CA-25 Winjeels. Some aircraft will be offering joy flights.

Barring operational requirements, QFRS will be demonstrating the jaws of life on a 4WD.

Public parking is free, food and drinks (no alcohol) are available. There is an entry fee to attend, $15 per adult, children 12 and under free, $40 for family 2 adults and teenagers. Exhibitors are $10 per vehicle with two people on board. Exhibitors start assembling at 7.30 am.

Due to Aerodrome regulations smoking and pets are not allowed apart from guide dogs.

For more information follow the event on the David Hack Classic Facebook page and the Rotary Club of Toowoomba North website (David Hack Classic tab).

The David Hack is a major fundraising event for charities and over 60 volunteers help run the day. The Leukaemia Foundation and Blue Care are primary recipients.
