(for those of you who haven't been watching his practice sessions,
around Stead airport, I'd guess he's hittin' 390-400 in straight-n-level
flight).

Re: 100km speed run Blue 2

John made his speed runs today in the 390-400 mph range today. He made two passes with about 40 knot gusty winds. Tomorrow should be better with less winds. I never did find out what his official speed was. Blue Thunder II looked and sounded GOOD though!
