Ultimate Air Race Championship practice

[vg-photo]

I was up at Vosburgh Airfield on Saturday for a closed practice event and filming of the Ultimate Air Race Championship. It's a new thing that they are putting together for the air show circuit. It is pretty exciting, and being out under the pylon for this event was quite a thrill. I have photos of the event at the link below. Their first American display of it will be at the Camarillo Airshow in August.

IMHO that whole thing is a very bad accident waiting to happen.

This is the same David Riggs of Santa Monica Pier infamy.

IMO, 'nuff said.
