[swisspilot]

So finally this weekend I will be able to see them, I saw all the teams once at Hangar 7 in Salzburg Austria, btw if you ever go to Austria you have to visit, the owner of red bull has his collection of airplanes there: http://www.hangar-7.com/en (I have a ton of pictures of hangar 7 I'm gonna post some)..but I never got to see the race, so this weekend I will be laying on the Flamengo Beach drinking beer (yes it's legal here) eating BBQ and watching the race in the world most beautiful city.....

They are a lot of fun! The piloting skills are amazing. I went to San Diego last year and it was awesome. I will be going to the NYC race next month. Enjoy it!! and we are looking forward to pics of the girls!

Yes it is, you can meet a lots of VIPs there, when I was there I saw Niki Lauda flying in on his Learjet for a coffe at the bar, Felix Baumgartner was there both days I visited, I also saw George Lucas over at hangar 8..

If you visit you have to go in the winter, in the summer the flying bulls http://www.flyingbulls.com/#/de/Home/ are around at air shows...


the city is also really nice....
