I say we support Wayne and keep this website spewing the progress of competitive sport aviation. We can show they still have an audience. Even if it's just an Airshow?

Did you know Jimmy Leeward was a Skip Barber Racing School graduate and drove a GTP car in the Miami Grand Prix in the 80's? Did you know he was a snow skier? This guy was a man of many great passions from what I've read.

That is fantastic. Why is it called common sense when it doesn't seem that common any more? Reno's 47 year spectator safety record speaks volumes on measures instituted years ago. In the big picture, it could have been much, much worse. Yes, the accident was a "spectacular show" for the media but, how many lose their lives every year in European rally racing when a car careens into a crowded corner for crimany sakes? Things happen. A large percentage of things that people enjoy ARE dangerous. Thats one reason people do them.
