True Rusty, they are sure flying on the edge. I've never understood how
they scored those but, never-the-less it leaves very little for error. I'm
suprised they haven't had more accidents. I've heard rumour that they might
bring some of those races over the N.A.? I wonder how the FAA would sanction
races which involve flying under bridges and between structures at less than the
1500ft clearnace currently required? [some of those pylon's you have to fly
through in knife edge correct?]
Hi
Jarrett,
Some of
the red gates are knife edge, and you have to have the correct wing up
or down as well. They did have a race in San Francisco in 2006, but
didn't fly under any bridges :-) They have a web site with all
the info you can stand, and some videos as well. http://www.redbullairrace.com/index.php
Cheers,
Rusty (off to
FedEx)
