Abstract:
The Fly-In and Threshers Reunion is a three-day annual event held at Denton International Airport in Southern Davidson County. The event started in 1970, when Brown Loflin and other community leaders invited airplanes to come in and offer free rides as a fundraiser for the Denton County rescue squad. Since then, the event has expanded to feature a variety of attractions and machinery, such as a wheat threshing machine, locomotives, an operating moonshine sill, and hundreds of exhibitors.
