Geoff13 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I don't think it is at all funny. In fact I think it is cruel and dangerous for both the people and the dog. I would like to meet the idiot:angry: on the ground. Cheers Geoff13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgmwa Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yes, certainly not something I would subject an animal to either and definitely potentially dangerous as is obvious in the clip, but it still made me laugh. Humans are contrary animals, aren't they? People do take dogs on planes, but I wonder how many take steps to protect the dog's hearing? rgmwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rankamateur Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Most I know buy Mutt Muffs from America for flying or shooting in company with their dog. Have another real good look at the dog, did it look really concerned, if it is anything like my dog it would have been more stressed to get left behind and miss out on the fun!

Geoff13 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Have another look at 0.20 when he hits his head on the pilots shoulder then the back of the seat and he lands bum first. He didn't look to happy to me. People should need a licence to have pets or kids. Cheers Geoff13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza 38 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 This video was on a year or three ago , back then I thought the pilot was a knob jockey back then and yep, I feel the same way now. Actually calling him a knob jockey is being kind, I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camel Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 So the way I see it, to get airbourne in the cockpit it would be at least -2 G, is that correct? Is it not outside the limitations ?

Guernsey Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Zero G would be required. Alan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
