Did anyone see the webcast of the Red Bull Air Race in Budapest this
afternoon? I saw the blurb in the AOPA Friday email and decided to
take a look. All I can say is WOW....WOW.....WOW. It's a darn shame
that, for a variety of reasons, that we will never see anything quite
like this in the U.S.

These guys were flying a slalom course over the Danube River with the
start and finish line going under a bridge. Absolutely astounding. I
don't feel like much of a pilot after watching that.

They are an interesting bunch of people there, although these guys went over
the bridges instead of underneath them, it still must have been a
spectacular sight as well. Following pictures were taken at an event in
Budapest to celebrate their joining the EU.
