Well people it'sgetting close for the 48th annual Reno Air Races in Reno Neveda September 14-18 2011. There are 6 differents classes of aircraft racing, Formula 1, Biplanes, Sport, Super Sport, Jets, and Unlimted . The aircraft range from small home built aircraft to WWII fighters powered by radial and piston driven enginges and small jet trainers. Highly recommend the pit pass for the days you attend because this allows you to get up close to all the aircraft for photo opportunities. It will be non stop action. There is always something going wether its racing or flight demonstrations. I guarantee you will not be bored. You will need sun block and something padded to sit on if you sit in the bleachers. I think what amazes me is the unlimted aircraft are from the 1940's era. These machines saw combat befoe I was born over 60 years ago and they are flying between 400 and 500 miles an hour. When you see and hear these magnificient machines doing their thing, you will be hooked. Go and experience a great tradition going on its 48th year.
