Fly low, Go fast, Turn left !

Sorry for the quality - although once you understand these were taken with my point and shoot digital camera (no tripod), I could not see the airplanes through the screen half the time, and that the airplanes were traveling 220 - 500 mph you will agree the quality is pretty amazing considering the equipment I was using.

More Air Race Pics

WOW - The Air Races!!!

The air races are INCREDIBLE!!! The airplanes race over 1.7 to 3 mile courses (depending on the class of airplane) and fly 50 - 200 feet off the ground - even the 500mph jets!

I'm hooked and plan on hopefully attending every year
