I was thinking of an idea for a story about air-racing, probably involving Reno but perhaps not.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a suitable source of info (books, sites, people etc)??

I was going to suggest that book after seeing your post on the WIX forums (I actually had it in my hand five minutes before reading your question) but I see MikeJ has done the honours! It is very American indeed, but I’m sure it’ll come in handy, and it’s a good read as well 😮

I have many Air Racing Annuals at home plus various books on this topic
I will PM you the Titles etc of them – many are OOP but could be found on various 2nd hand dealers
In addition to that – a photographic impression plus much material is to be found here:

I think that was recommended over on PPRuNE – definitely going to check it out!
It’s coming along slowly, Mike, mainly due to rewrites and the usual “trying to get it right” syndrome!! I’m rewriting what I’ve got just now as I’m not 100% happy with it, but it WILL get done! 😉
