Northern Nevada Radio Control Open House & Air Show
The first Northern Nevada RC Air Show hosted by the High Sierra RC Club took place Saturday at the Pony Express Model Airpark.
Radio Control Clubs from all over Northern Nevada participated in the event The High Sierra RC Club, Reno Radio Control Club, Sierra Silent Soarers, Reno Sparks Control Liners Model Airplane Club and Sierra Sagebrush Flyers.
This weekend’s event was put on for a good cause. The admission was $2 per person or two cans of food. The event was held for donations for the Food Bank of Northern Nevada. “We have to give back to the community in order to put on events like these.” said Dan Etcheto Secretary of High Sierra RC Club “Next year we hope to host another RC Air Show.”
Several of the events consisted of RC Car racing, Helicopters, Acrobatic, Pylon Racing, Jets, Electrics, Winch Launched Gliders, Control-Line and War Birds.
Saturday’s event was something for the whole family. It was exciting and thrilling. There was so much to see. I hope there will another RC Air Show next year. If there will be one you will be sure to find me there.
