So just who goes to the Reno Air Races? Everybody who loves the whine of a turbo-charged, fuel injected, tinkered-to-damnation inline engine and the daring of pilots willing to speed 350 kmp, 9 inches from each other’s wings, 12 feet from the ground around a 3 mile closed course!
We’ve been here a day, and already we’ve met good friends and ...
