The Las Vegas 51s have changed their name to the Las Vegas Aviators. I think that it’s a much better choice and a more reasonable name than many of the other new choices. I didn’t like 51s since it was a tribute to Area 51 which is close to Las Vegas and not a being. Although when people think about Las Vegas, I don’t think the first thought is about the aircraft testing that is done in the area.
