PFLUGERVILLE, TX – FEBRUARY 4, 2011 -- Continuing our coverage of the 2010 Reno National Championship Air Races, LiveAirShowTV profiles the father/daughter duo of John and Heather Penney. Though they are not the only racing family at Reno, these two share something very special. “There are many stories on the ramp at Reno”, says LiveAirShowTV President Jeff Lee. “We felt like this one needed extra focus. Working with PilotMag to develop the story made for a great combination.” The feature is on line now at www.LiveAirShowTV.com in the left-hand column on the home page.
PilotMag featured the Penney’s in their last two issues of 2010. Once those stories were published, we got to work on combining the two into one. Special thanks also goes out to Don “Bucky” Dawson for the great historical racing shots, and to John’s wife Stephanie for the priceless family photos.
Rare Bear is an established Reno favorite, but Heather’s plane Raju Grace enjoyed success in its first year. With John likely to step aside as the Bear’s driver, it looks like Heather will now carry the torch around the pylons in the future.
Check out what’s new from PilotMag at www.pilotmag.com. More information on Rare Bear is available at www.rarebear.com. Information on Raju Grace can be found at www.airrace21.com. More of Bucky Dawson’s photos can be seen in the Air Racing Forums at www.aafo.com.
More stories are in the works from Reno, as well as several of the aerobatic performers we talked to during our Texas Tour in October of 2010. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter. Links for both are available on the home page at www.LiveAirShowTV.com.
