I have shot a lot of "air shows, but this was my 1st time at the Reno Air races
The back story.
Two of BIL & myself got tickets. One of them has taken up photography & wanted to get the "killer" shots out on the course. I told him you have to have a press pass for that access.
He inquired & they said to submit your proposal for promoting the event. I didn't think they would accept it .
I expected this from my experience. Well they accepted his request!
I couldn't let that stand. I did likewise, with my references & event images & got in too.
The starting field for the Unlimited class
Jet class, rounding the pylon at 400
T-6 Class, crossing the finish line
Wing tip to wing tip, T-6 racing style
Over the top racing, Formula 1 class
The winner in Unlimited class in the Sea Fury, "Dreadnaught"
A stock P-51, filling out the Unlimited class
