Today Reno remains as the only location for the annual National Air Races. In a spooky and sad reminder of the past, in 2011 a modified P-51 again crashed at the races tragically killing the pilot and 10 spectators plus injuring 69 others. This could have spelt the end of the National Air Races forever, but luckily safety changes were made and the following year the race was held again and continues to do so. I am glad such a unique race can continue on. It is a link to aviation heritage (old warbirds continue to race just like the old days) and I can tell you from my own experience at the air races in 2012 it is quite an event and very, very exciting!
