We’re flight testing our aircraft at Reno Stead Airport, site of the famed Reno Air Show. I can’t wait for the next show, coming up this September.

It’s the last remaining air race of its kind in the world. Nowhere else can you find Fokke Wulf 190s, P-51 Mustangs, Corsairs and Spitfires racing down on the deck at 500+ mph.
DUCK! No, not that, it's . . . . Never mind.
They are right ON the deck.
Amazing Awesomeness! Hope to take my dad this year.
Now those are airplanes that are just plain, screaming fun. Dang, but I've always wanted to fly a P-51.
Manly fun!
I will be there and so will my company.
It's my dream. I was chatting with the airport manager at Stead and told him that I wanted to race either a Bearcat or a P-51 in the Unlimited Class. He looked at me with some skepticism. I said, "sure, I'll auger in at 500 mph, but I'll do it with a smile on my face."
Of the very highest order.
In another life, I Race P-51s…in this one, I buy plastic models 1/48 scale for my boys, knowing they will need help…
I see that you live in the same world that I do.
Been there many a time. I've even worked the concession stands for Sertomia who put it on. Mrs. Woodsterman still does.
Have Mrs. W. look for the Ashima Devices vendor booth. They will be able to find me.
