  • Reno 2017 so far

    Lots of people for a Thursday, plenty of vendors, PLENTY of action in the sky constantly, lots on display in the pits/military/exhibitors... So far so good, Voodoo retiring shouldn't mean it's the end. Stay positive, RARA needs us
    Reno from '99 to '22

          Full Noise was still faster than the last place in Unlimited 1B!

          Did something happen during Heat 1A? I can't get the live feed back, when I did watch it it said there was only 4:51 of video and I heard "Red flag, red flag" from ATC?

                        I'll second that! The Texas Flying Legends demonstration was as good as having another unlimited heat!

                          The Texas Flying Legends where more than I expected, they where outstanding.

                          The low passes banked towards the grandstands with home pylon in the background and our September sun just offered some excellent photos ops.

                            Here's one of the passes.

                            So, now that I know the time and their routine, today I will be prepared for some better shots.

                              Seriously, the Texas crew knows how to put on a show! Don't think I've ever seen a B-25 get down on the deck like that or have seen a TBM tossed around like that. Definitely a fine display of airmanship.
