tooueay 0 #1 July 8, 2002 I am just applying power for takeoff on our grass strip when I see an animal bounding down the runway towards us. The jumpers give me the "what's the diddly, yo?" look. The dog is coming right at the prop so I shut the plane down. It turns out one of the guys on the load has a 3 legged dog who is VERY attached to him. The damn mutt peg legged it over a half mile from the hanger to the plane! Maybe the dog realized that it's owner wasn't jumping out of a "perfectly good airplane"...?Give me ambiguity...or something else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 July 8, 2002 That wasn't Scotty's dog, was it? You know, 'lil Herculies? You know, Scotty Carbone, the crazy old fart hanging out of the door on takeoff...

freeflir29 0 #3 July 8, 2002 I've seen things like that before. One girls dog drug a packing weight all the way across the hangar whining and barking the whole way when he saw canopies landing. I think he is a little attached... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slappie 9 #4 July 8, 2002 Only dog I can think of is Scotty C's dog with 3 legs and at a DZ.. But, I have to say I've never seen "TriPod" run after the plane because Scotty was on a load..
