REDDING, Calif. -- With the Redding Air Show just days away we asked around to see if people in the Northstate still plan on going.
We asked a dozen people about it and almost everyone told KRCR they are not concerned about safety issues and will definitely be going to the air show.
That includes Yvette Norden who was at the Redding Air Show in 1991 when a plane crash killed the pilot and injured nine spectators.
“Air races are the dangerous ones and the air show is entirely different and its safe, not always for the pilots, but safe for spectators,” says Norton.
George Knte agreed.
“I love the air show, I think it's a neat event for Redding and I would go back.”
When asked if the Reno crash is having an impact on sales, the air show's chairman, Bill Wagner told KRCR that he hasn’t noticed anything yet, although the next couple days are usually the busiest and so they won't really know until after that.
Tickets are still available and are on sale all week for $10 and $16 at the gate.
Children under 11-years old get in for free.
You can buy your tickets at any Raley’s Supermarket in Redding, Chico, or Red Bluff.
