    Air racing is the world’s fastest and most dangerous motor sport. The new
    feature documentary "Air Racer: Chasing the Dream" follows inventor and race
    pilot Jon Sharp and his wife Patricia over a six-year journey to create the
    world’s most advanced racing airplane, the Nemesis NXT. They put everything
    on the line, including Jon’s life, to realize a dream that's much larger
    than just winning a race… they intend to change air racing forever by
    offering their revolutionary design to other pilots.

    With the help of a close-knit team of volunteers, Jon and Patricia design,
    build, test, and race their cutting-edge aircraft. As they race their
    creation against some of the best pilots in the world, they almost lose
    everything during a crash landing in front of fans and competitors. Jon and
    Patricia are faced with the possibility of failure after years of total
    commitment to their project. They must find a way to carry on and keep their
    dream alive if they hope to realize the true potential of what they have
    created. In the end, the reality of their achievement reaches so far beyond
    anyone’s expectations that air racing will never be the same again.



    What People Are Saying

    "'Air Racer' is a documentary about the elite world of air racing. The movie
    profiles a husband and wife team that try to create the most advanced,
    purpose-built air racing airplane ever built. The result is an exciting look
    at the competitive, but rarely seen world of air racing."

    -Jason Paur, WIRED.com


    "Unbelievable. Breathtaking. And above all… REAL. This is a movie about air
    racing that looks like it can hit the holy grail of appealing to the general
    public and also be something we can all get behind."

    -AAFO.com, HangarTalk


    "'Air Racer' is a skillful blending of the personal and technical aspects of
    air racing that spectators never get to see. It’s all there... The next
    best thing to being at the Reno Air Races. Highly recommended."

    -Jack Cox, Sportsman Pilot magazine

              Thanks for the reminder, Jon! I actually set my DVR about 2 weeks ago because I know that I wouldn't have time to watch it during broadcast. I've seen bits and pieces of it at my dad's house, but can't wait to sit down and watch the whole thing!

                      I watched this last night with my 4 year old son!

                      I know it's not your normal action-packed summer blockbuster, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. As a composites engineer I was glued to the manufacturing portion of the movie. As an airplane nerd I loved the focus on the NXT, but also the inclusion of the Lancair and the Thunder Mustang. As an air racing fanatic, it gave me my fix until September.

                      Thanks again for being part of a great show, Jon. Best of luck to you and your team!
