Cessna Skyhawk (N2291C) - A lot going on in this snap, taken yesterday, of Flying Start Aeros N2291C, a Cessna Skyhawk, as a student pilot lifts it away from runway 7 at KRNO.  br /This is the first gallery photo of N2291C.  I was going to post a full-side-view of it, but I decided I like everything shown in this shot.  First, this is the first time in my twenty years of spotting at RNO that Ive caught a runway 7 departure.  The wind very, very rarely comes blowing from out of the east, but as is quite obvious by the fully extended sock on the left side of this shot and all the blowing dirt in the background, yesterdays wind was really blasting from the east.  All that blowing dirt brought the construction taking place on taxiway Charlie to a halt.  And also in the background, SCXs N817SY is awaiting the arrival of the UNR (University of Nevada, Reno) football team to take the Wolfpack to its game against the Utah State Aggies in Logan, Utah.

A lot going on in this snap, taken yesterday, of Flying Start Aero's N2291C, a Cessna Skyhawk, as a student pilot lifts it away from runway 7 at KRNO.
This is the first gallery photo of N2291C. I was going to post a full-side-view of it, but I decided I like everything shown in this shot. First, this is the first time in my twenty years of spotting at RNO that I've caught a runway 7 departure. The wind very, very rarely comes blowing from out of the east, but as is quite obvious by the fully extended sock on the left side of this shot and all the blowing dirt in the background, yesterday's wind was really blasting from the east. All that blowing dirt brought the construction taking place on taxiway Charlie to a halt. And also in the background, SCX's N817SY is awaiting the arrival of the UNR (University of Nevada, Reno) football team to take the Wolfpack to its game against the Utah State Aggies in Logan, Utah.
