For a long while it seemed they just funded their transporting the fuselage every year. But this year at Reno, they had some real progress. Minus the important part like engine... It's currently in that well known stage of 90% intact with 90% left to go.

Look, I agree he wouldn't have been in a racer of his own design if not for the dream. But poor (nonexistent) engineering is what caused the aircraft to crash. The landing gear failed in a gentle low speed turn. Then the flaps failed and deployed asymmetrically. If the basics weren't engineered. What keeps flutter and divergence from rearing their heads at speed? We don't need another Ghost incident. (Failure to re-set horizontal stabilizer to the specifications of NACA high mach dive test setting, using a trim tab to hold nose down instead. And removing the other tab).

I watched another KZread video of Skip Jolm telling an audience that he had Tsunami flying at 582 mph at 100 inches of manifold pressure! Not sure how he can say this as Tsunami never won a Reno Gold in the unlimited class?!

Takes more than a fast plane to win a race.
@EllipsisAircraft5 ай бұрын
582mph at its optimal altitude, a straight line, no additional induced drag, and this long straight around 12,500' taking place on a hot day. I still doubt it could hit mach 0.75 as a piston engine propeller airplane.

Agreed 100%. I also wish there were at least 2-3 more per year, ideally in different locations. When I was a little kid in the early 1970's, my dad took me to not only the Reno Air Races, but also the Mojave and San Diego Air Races, all in the same year. Imagine going to 3-4 of these per year!

I'm so grateful for the videos you've been uploading lately. Tsunami was flying around the time I was born into my infancy, and I've always been fascinated by it, coming from a family of avgeeks and airline pilots. I'm not sure if I love air racing more because of the excitement involved on every level, or the fact that it's just so low key that you can converse or interact with so many people so easily without being shoved off or turned away from people. I've been involved with regional NASCAR racing for around twenty years, and the air racing community gives off the same vibe. Thanks again for all of these great videos.
