Dad called from Reno and said this just happened, sketchy reports, etc. 1st report was it flew into stands. Article says otherwise, but too early to tell. Pray there are not any or many casualties.

Dang I hate to see this. Barry’s boys are always looking for a reason to shut down American events like this. Prayers up for the injured.

That is the first I have heard of any bystanders ever being injured at the Reno Air Races. Leeward has been racing for several years. Prayers up for all involved.

Ouch, no way Leeward could have survived that.

Ouch, no way Leeward could have survived that. Agreed, unless there was a 'chute that we didn't see in the video.

EPA is sending a team to collect unburned hydro carbons. They won’t allow rescue crews in until fuel is cleaned up. /s/
To: Rational Thought
This is going to be bad. At least 12 dead so far.

You can't really trust early reports, however unfortunately
Plane Crashes Near Seats At Reno Air Races claims that "Early reports indicate at least 12 people were killed and more than 30 people seriously injured."
Let's hope that there were not that many casualties... Very sad...

I live just a few miles south and east. I was wondering why I hadn’t heard a lot of air traffic this afternoon but wrote it off to the wind. It’s been pretty cloudy and breezy today but warm and nothing too out of the ordinary for September. Prayers up for all those affected...

So some wacko moderator has pulled this news from the BREAKING NEWS bar ...
Three days ago I saw the breaking news about the Dish HD satellite going dark. TRUE but moderators in all their wisdom, PULLED that FOR NO APPARENT REASON.
FREE REPUBLIC used to be on top - just like Obama and the feds we need the moderators TO GET OUT OF THE WAY of the news here on FR.
To: Zeppo
Hopefully their “12” was a misprint and was actually only “1” or “2”...

It was initially in Breaking and that’s the only reason I saw it.
How many freepers are NOT SEEING this story, because it got pulled from Breaking
