    The wife and I had a conversation the other night about why I love airshows but refuse to go. It is because several years back it seemed like they were dropping one into the crowd at every other show. She almost had me convinced to start going again until she hear this on the news and called me about it.

    78 was the year I went. Growing up I always saw those Champion spark plug posters that had all the winners. Pikes Peak hill Climb, Indy 500 and the Reno air races.... 3 of us drove out from Oregon to watch.

    This may be the end.

    I have a good friend that races there every year. He races the Mcdonald racer T-6. Thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Reno Air Race community.

    One of my Iron Mountian drivers goes out every year to this event. Thought and prayers are with everyone involved.

    Truly unfortunate. Reno Races are on my bucket list.
