Mark S. Daniels Ramp and Action Shots

Dust Devil avoidance was the name of the game as the summer heat kicked up some Tornado-like vortices. Here, a Sport Class racer avoids a zephyr on the backcourse at Stead. Pilots reported encounters with the dust devils that were so severe as to knock off headsets and bang helmets sharply against canopies. Even at reduced speeds for training.. this was no cake walk for the pilots!
