N777L / 77 (cn D.1170) John Penney in "Rare Bear", one of the locals favorites and a bird with a lot of history. The hangar for instance at Stead Field is named aptly "The Bear Cave". Unfortunately during Sundays gold race the engine decided it didn't want to live anymore forcing John to put his amazing skills to use with an emergency landing. Seen here landing on runway 8 after a run around the pylons at the 2008 Reno National Championship Air Races. |
