Almost everyone has dreamed they could fly at least once in their life. Jetman made this dream a reality.
In 2006, the Swiss pilot Yves Rossy became the first and only man in the history of aviation to fly with a jet-propelled wing, and still is to this day.
From soaring over the Alps, to weaving through the Grand Canyon, to crossing the English Channel, his “jetwing” powered performance is a sight to see. Jetman can reach speeds of 150pmh, and plans to hit top speeds at the Reno Air Races this September.
The 50th anniversary of the Reno Air Races will be more impressive than ever – save the dates now!
“Air Races 3-D” is now playing in Reno/Sparks through September 20th in Cinemark Theaters.
“Fly into Nevada’s ‘Valley of Speed’ for a breathtaking exploration of the fastest race in the world combines with spectacular air show entertainment: the legendary Reno National Championship Air Races. Join today’s elite pilots as they fight for position at twice the speed of a NASCAR race. Learn about the history and science behind the sport whose concept dates back tot he dawn of aviation.”
Narrated by Paul Walker, it was shot during the 2009 and 2010 Races, and is currently playing in Digital 3D at Reno’s Cinemark Century Park Lane 16, Century Riverside 12, Century Summit Sierra Cinemas, as well as at the Century Sparks 14 in Sparks.
