Drag Strip Landing at NPR

Reminds me of racing at York US 30 back in the mid-70's. There was so much shut-down there, the planes usually landed well past the finish line as I remember. The strip's still there operating as York-Thomasville airport although the Cragar Tower's long gone. There's still an aerial photo of the place taken during the Super Stock Nationals hanging on the office wall next to the Flight Service desk. Neat video, Pat....

Happy New Year everyone!
