yeah that's all over fox news . . . prayers go out to those involved and the pilot . . .
its funny on the news they keep going on how the plane was made in WW 2, it's not safe because it was made back in the 1st age before NĂºmenor and the rings of power . . .
that we can have more safety standards and better planes . . . and back then we did what we could but now is not 1940's . . .
how they need to ban them, no more people spectating in bleacher seats next to runways and how unregulated Reno is . . .
and then they go how they should regulate it like airlines, and how air racing is unprofessional . . .
it didn't help that they had the fan talking about saying its like barnstorming in the 1920's, there is that danger factor . . . oh boy give them more ammo
man, the news gots more spin than all the DJ's in New York City, London, and Ibiza . . .
they had some FAA guys/gals watching too . . .
pretty soon you won't be able to spectate at the races . . .
i just hope they don't ban the unlimited category and fix the races so you can only use modern, composite planes with ceramic engines and cockpits with surround airbags etc . . .
I mean the pilots understand the danger, and kudos for those keeping the warbirds in a condition where they can participate in the races.
dang and the redbull had a good thing goin, it was cool to be into air racing like it is F1 or NASCAR.
I just hope they don't go overboard and ban / put so many restrictions its not worth air racing . . .
