Planes of Fame Air Show 2011
May 14th & 15th
Chino Airport
Two Time Reno Unlimited Gold Winning Pilot Steven Hinton will be with the
Highly-Modified P-51 Mustang "Strega" at this year's Planes of Fame Air
Show.
Boasting a Rolls Royce V-1649, 12 cylinder, 3800 horsepower liquid-cooled
engine, Strega holds the record for the fastest lap ever at Reno Air Races,
clocking in at 511 mph. The 511 lap is unofficially the fastest lap.
Steven Hinton is the youngest pilot to ever win the Unlimited Gold Race at
age 22. Ironically, the previous holder of that record was his dad Steve
Hinton Sr. who won at age 26 in 1978.
