  • Air Racers in the News

    Reading "Warbird Digest - Edition 91" couple old racers are mentioned in the Flight Log





    This is on of my best subscriptions, I read it front to back word for word. It's a bit pricey but the paper quality, photography and well written stories that draw you in is well worth the price. Old issues are saved and will never end up in the recycling bin.

    I compare it to buying a good books, great for future reference.

          If memory serves, the Sea Fury was brought to Reno by Dale Clark. Anyone remember in '85 when he hit the wake of the Sea Furies ahead of him and almost got upside down on pylon 1? I have a video of it somewhere.
