Named the Number 1 Air Show in America and a Top 10 Air Show in the World, the yearly event of The STIHL National Championship Air Races in Reno combines the world’s fastest motor sport with spectacular military and civilian air entertainment.
This year’s showcase took place September 11 – 15, 2019 and attracted once again thousands of visitors from all around the world to admire six different classes of race planes and enjoy up-close access to aircraft, pilots and crews.
