Are they pushing the throttle all the way till it stops, leaving it there and flying the course with both hands on the stick or are they constantly working the throttle foward and aft? Is it hard on the engines when they fly the course or could these engines work all day at these settings?

These L-29s will end the Reno air races. They are starting to get into mach tuck etc and at least one had structural failures at PRS this year. They are flying death traps.

Is this the same Curt Brown that flew the Shuttle (and took John Glen back into space) ???

@sanfranciscobay there are pylons around the track, they are probably looking out for other planes and obsticals, as well as the instruments

Racing aricraft land LEFT of centerline to allow right side to remain open for other aircraft if they are in trouble and need to get down fast. This is a safety precaution all race pilots follow. It is NOT sloppy flying.

A few more questions for anyone.
Are your eyes generally fixed on the next pylon? Rather than looking at other things.
Can you see the next pylon as you clear the last pylon?
Can you see more than one pylon at a time?
Are the pylons easy to spot or are they hidden amongst the terrain?
Does the course feel natural to fly fast in or is it off centered or unbalanced...?

The course is marked with pylons and markers that the pilots can see during the race. You can see some of these in the video

What does a pilot look at while running the course?
Do they look at their compass, high mountains...?
How do they see the turning points?

Actually there are more rules that favor such planes as L-29s and 39s, Jet Provosts, Vampires and CASAs.
I was the crew chief on one of these aircraft and am on my way back to Reno tomorrow for the 2009 races.
bijouxbisous - you're a moron. Let me see you even try to land that piece of crap bug smasher you have after you've been exposed to 4 to 6 Gs in a sweltering cockpit. Curt Brown is one of the best pilots flying today. You couldn't even taxi an L29 dumbass!
