50th Annual Reno National Championship Air Races - InFlight USA | (Pete Shirk)The title of the

(Ask your spouse for clarification on anniversaries.) And celebrate we did, however, it did not come easily. A little background history will help....The 50th National Championship Air Races -- Wrap-up -- Part 1 - The Pylon Place | Well, the 50th is in the books.

Side-by-side twin Pratt & Whitney jet turbines have replaced the original single Wright radial reciprocating engine. These new engines sit low in the nose which has been redesigned to have an edged snout with twin, and distinctly characteristic, black rectangular engine air inlets. The exhaust is directed out of the left side, below and forward of the pilot. Yes, the pilot usually is on the left side of this helicopter — not the right side as in most U.S. made helicopters — since most aerial crane work is flown from the left side as the S-58T naturally tilts a bit to the left (greater visibility for the pilot and his aerial crane work)....
