Named after Brazil’s Alberto Santos Dumont, an early pioneer of aviation who made the world’s first officially witnessed fixed-wing aircraft flight in 1906, the airport in Rio is just a few kilometers north of the race track where a million spectators are expected to watch the race this weekend.
“It’s really a historical moment and we’re glad to be here,” said Bernd Loidl, CEO of Red Bull Air Race at the opening ceremony with the pilots and local Brazilian officials who helped make the race happen. “We’re going to see outstanding racing and a new dimension of motorsport with some of the very best pilots in the world standing here with me.” ...

that THIS flight is going to be anything from typical, because the canopy of the Boeing F-18 Hornet has just clicked down and locked in place, and there is no sweaty salesman sitting beside me.   Instead, I am strapped into a fully functional ejection seat with more harnesses than I can count, and all that ...
