Random Shot Of The Day - Part 2

For all the three blade fans...

Not as sharp as I'd like, but I love that pylon 8 angle. It's an experience to stand there and have this thing come over your head at 490mph! It's an impossible place to take Gold Race photos, but pylon 8 is the best place on the field to really experience a Gold Race.

Count me as one who liked the 3-bladed Bear. Thanks for sharing that one! The sound that beast made at speed, 50 feet over my head on Outer 6, was a bone-rattlng, deep baritone reverberation like I've never heard before...or sadly, since.

Thought I had one very similar in my collection but, no. It's the 4-blade. What year did they run the 3-blade?

Loved Outer 8 but unless you're into silhouettes of airplanes and lens flare, it's not a good place in the PM. Always wondered why it was so popular for the Media folks at that time of day.

2013 - We followed Thom's journey from Florida to Reno. He landed with minutes to spare for entry.

Plus was the first time we got to see the new canopy.

Thom and PM were like celebrities and we were the paparazzi
