SteadFast Friday Silver 2011

Here’s a video that Will posted over on Vimeo, some pretty wild racing for the first few laps with planes all over the place. Will gets hit with some nasty wake turbulence at several different times during this heat race. http://vimeo.com/29945073

I wonder if Will is aware of one of his Sponsored Links.
"Victims of Reno Air Show"
I don't think YouTube has that pushed on you.

Last I spoke with Will, the attempt is scheduled for this weekend and it is I believe a weight class attempt.

What category is the attempt?

I believe it is C-1.d.

Nice video, that wake from PM looked pretty rough. Will flys one of the nicest lines when he can get down in the course IMO.

Re: SteadFast Friday Silver 2011

I’m not really sure what category the attempt will be in, but Race5 may be right. Scotty G is going to be there shooting pics so I’m sure we’ll see some good stuff when it’s all said and done.

Re: SteadFast Friday Silver 2011

Hi Jason
Yes it is C1D and we are trying to beat the
Hughes racer replicas record of 305 mph.
Same weight class.
We would have rather done it with higher ambient temperatures but
Voodoo flight test program and SteadFast aerobatic display at the Santa Rosa airshow took precedence.
It should be a good time with the crew.
More later in the week!
