Some jet Reno racers

Tue Jul 31, 2007 5:20 pm

They've changed some rules for the Jet racing class at Reno this year, allowing some new aircraft. The Buckeye looked especially fast on the race course.

Reno's coming up very soon! I'm getting itchy...

Nice Pics!

The CT-133 looks like the one National Research Council (Canadian Gov) use to fly, C-FWIS s/n 590, now registered as N590RC.

Jets Rule! 8)

Thanks! I have no idea on the Lockheed, and did not meet the owner at Reno -- I suspect somebody here will know though. Sure did look cool without the tip tanks.
