• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Red Bull cancells all races

I hope that's it. I kind of read between the lines of the article that it was costing too much as well and they were looking for additional financial support.
 
I hope it is for safety reasons. I know they have a very good record, but looking at the races there is no doubt the type of flying they are doing is very risky. They aim the aircraft at spectators during the maneuvers and it wouldn't take much to see one of these aircraft get out of control and fly right into the crowd.

That would only happen once and the whole series would be done for.

I admire the skilll of the pilots. What they do requires amazing skills!
