Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.

Thanks again for your patience,

      Flash back to 1964.

      Interesting history lesson.

        Debbie Reynolds will be at the Riverside and $1.65 prime rib dinner Wednesday night at the Horseshoe Club.

        All I need a buck for 4 .25 cent beers at the Cal Neva and 10 bucks for Joe's place.

                    Re: 2020 Reno Air Races

                    Friday 9/18 and the sun is peaking out behind clouds.

                    Stead Airfield is making some noise this morning. Did I wake up from a bad dream and the air race are on - not :-(

                    First the Tactical Air F5 hit the skies, then a NAG C130 took off hot and did 2 fast low fly-bys. Right over the house, ran in to get the camera and bummer, no 3rd pass.

                    C130s sound so good when they are on it. Maybe they can have some form of fun competition with some the of C130 groups from our services getting together annually.

                    Timed to load up, take-off, couple hot laps and then land. Staggered timed start/take-offs so the action for spectators is consistent.

                    Top team gets bragging rights for a year. The service branches get bragging rights for a year
