Reno - The Air display
Tue Oct 03, 2006 4:25 pm
A few from the Air Display that filled in the gaps between races.
It’s a replica, there is a guy hanging out of the back of it filming. Its surreal!
F-18 shot into the sun (from one of the pylons!)
The Heritage Flights
Val-Halla
Rhino! Possibly the last time I’ll see one display and darn fine it was too!
Mr Travolta I presume
F-15 four ship with teeth!
The Thunderbirds
I really don’t want to know!

Great photos thanks for posting. Is the Quantas airliner the one owned by actor John Travolta?

I'm pretty sure those Phantoms that were at Reno are slated to be blown up as target drones in the very near future.

Very nice MOTF! I've seen sombody standiing in the hatch in the S-38 before, but never leaning over the side!

The F-4s at Reno were the USAF Heritage jets. Yes, they are drones but they won't be blown up anytime soon. I'm really hoping that by putting them in the Heritage Flight, it will keep them alive for many years to come.
The Collings jet is a F-4D. The AF jets are QF-4Es. They also have a few QF-4Gs but they aren't in the Heritage Flight.
