Coronavirus lockdown prompts outback roadhouse to fly beer& pizza to cattle stations

What a great idea! This is the entrepreneurial spirit that will get us out of this mess!

[The Dunmarra Wayside Inn, located 315 kilometres south of Katherine, is owned by pilot Gary Frost.

He said with most of the surrounding cattle stations now in lockdown, he had little choice but to take to the skies in a bid to keep the locals in high spirits.

"Nobody can go anywhere, they're limited to how they get their supplies and refreshments," Mr Frost said.
"So we thought we might do something to help them out a little bit.

"We make pizzas at Dunmarra roadhouse anyway, so we thought we would get all the pizzas together and see if they were interested, if we can fly them out, so they don't have to leave the properties."
