I've been to Kite Fests at Liberty Park, and heard there's some buggys out once in a while. The view there is surreal - all these famous landmarks,
skyscrapers and occasional tall ships moving between them - all compressed and layered at eye-level around you, like some Photoshop fake.
So this would be quite a sight

Looks cool but the camera editing almost renders that unwatchable if you are trying to figure out what they are actually doing.acartier1981 - 21-6-2010 at 10:54 PM
That's the Red Bull Air Races, pretty cool, but they fly the track one at a time, and have to be doing less than 230 mph at the starting gate. Now
the Reno Air Races, that's 4 to 6 planes in a heat in several different classes. Those guys have major b@lls. 500 mph with 5 other planes around a 15
(or so) mile track, barely a hundred feet off the ground:wee:. They even have a jet class that does 540+ mph. I wanted to be a fighter pilot as a
kid, then found out you couldn't wear glasses and fly fighter planes. I wish I had the millions to get into that.
Kites are a lot cheaper and your life is by far a lot safer with them, lol. Even if your trying to jump with a 3m rocfighter - 22-6-2010 at 04:11 AM
I watched some you tube videos of this once. It is cool when they hit the cones. They just burst and fall. The cones not the plains!flyboy15 - 22-6-2010 at 06:34 AM
Red bull air race is pretty much a national event here haha. We have a lot of propheads walking around so its quite the popular show. like watching
F1 or the world cup or something haha
