Two pilots were killed when their planes collided Sunday during the National Championship Air Races and Air Show in Reno, Nevada, organizers of the event said.
“Around 2:15 p.m. this afternoon, at the conclusion of the T-6 Gold race, upon landing, two planes collided and it has been confirmed that both pilots are deceased,” the Reno Air Racing Association said in a statement posted on Facebook.
In a later statement, organizers identified the two pilots as Nick Macy and Chris Rushing.

I hate to say it, but this (crashes and/or pilot deaths) is fairly common at the Reno air races.
thats why its the last one.
That’s good. I moved away from the area in 2012. While the races were cool to see, they were definitely a liability.
