Fun in Aviation! The Beacon Cafe, Hicks Field, Fort Worth, TX - YouTube.com - Fun Places to Fly

We flew into Hicks Airfield in Fort Worth, Texas, and had a great Hamburger at the Beacon Cafe and Country Store. It was the best 100 dollar hamburger we've ever had (and it didn't cost a 100 dollars!). Highly recommended.
