Donnington Airpark is a privately-owned airpark catering for a range of aviation activities including ultralights, gyrocopters, gliding, homebuilts, general and commercial aviation. It is owned by Ray & Doris Smith and was created from virgin bush after they purchased the former grazing property in 1969. From 1979 to 1993 inclusive it was also home to the Donnington Airshow & Country Fly-In, a major event in North Queensland's aviation calendar during those years. Hangarage is available, aviation fuel by arrangement and a landing fee of $5 applies.
