I have driven down from Oregon several times but have not flown down. The
pilot of one of the T6's flies out of my home field and said that the ONLY
way to get a spot to park if you fly in is to call ahead and reserve a
parking spot with one of the FBOs. As far as the event itself... what an
event! It's the only place to see and hear race built aircraft engines
being pushed to their limits and watch aircraft shoot by show center at 450+
Also, be sure to get the pit passes, there is a lot going on and most or the
crews are quite friendly. Hmmm, I think I might have just talked myself
into going again this year.

Where you planning on flying into and planning to stay?


Dunno yet. We're sitting down with Brian & Christine (our friends who
bought our Warrior) in an hour or so to discuss possibilities. It seems
there are a fair number of local folks we know who are interested in going
to Reno this year!

I suspect if we really want to make it, we'll have to fly commercial.
Although if we can get enough guys together, we might just charter a King
Air or sumpin'...

I'll let you know!
