Two aircraft were able to land safely after a midair during a Jet Class
heat at the 55th annual National Championship Air Races at Reno-Stead
Airport (RTS) near Reno, Nevada, last Friday. The two Aero L-39 Albatros
jets made contact when Reality Czech, piloted by Nathan
Harnagel, was attempting to overtake Race 37, piloted by
Alexandre Eckmann.
