William Creek

The one up in Wales.

William Creek, I think, is one from which Wrights Air operate, and they do a lot of those sort of joy flights and things around Lake

Eyre.

The times just didn't work out, so oh

News coming up shortly.

We're gonna go to a place called William Creek in the Outback.

Population, about six.

I'll be talking to the mayor, who's also the publican.

Hundreds of people are descending on one of Australia's tiniest outback towns this weekend.

Plenty of them are arriving by plane.

It's the ninth annual William Creek Outback Fly-in.

Uh, pilots from across the country flying into the town, settling in for a big weekend at the iconic William Creek Hotel.

that was the cheapest.

I got fuel, and my highest was $3.25, and that was both at William Creek and Mount Dare, which was like days seven and nine.

So it was early in the trip, and then from there it just got cheaper, which was roughly about $2 to $2.40, I think.

We and Craig and Matt, they're very isolated.

Awesome place, yeah.

Really good spot.

But I think our favourite interview, which as we went through them, was our chat with Trevor Wright at the William Creek Hotel.

Yeah.

Uh, another question.

Have you ever bil- been to William Creek?

Yes, I have.

I've landed at William Creek.

Ah.

Um-

Just fly the plane right up there.

But what if you've got somebody o- out there with one of those little bags and they say, [laughs] "Would you mind, sir, uh, Captain, would you mind taking, uh, blowing in this?"

Creek? Yes, I have.

I've landed at William Creek.

I'll find one of these days a place where he has not been.

And the pilot and I got ourselves a six-pack

up there.

But what if you've got somebody out there with one of those little bags and they say, would you mind, sir, captain, would you mind taking a blowing in this?

They had an article, I think about two weeks ago in The Australian, about the chap who owns William Creek.

That's the hotel in the town.
