Done, 11 pups from Knoxville, TN to Harrisonburg, VA

Post by jdcpilot » Sun Oct 04, 2009 10:58 pm

The flight went well, nice tail wind on the way up which meant a strong headwind going back. Bumpy ride over the VA mountains but the pups did well. Gina Austin of the Lab and All Breed Rescue(sending rescue) from Munford, TN rode along with me. This flight gave Gina an opportunity to observe what we pilots go through flying dogs. Believe me, she has the hard part. We did have one passenger ride with us on the way back to Knoxville, TN. She was a young Malmute mix. A sweet young lady going to a foster in West TN.
Thanks to all the rescue groups for making this flight possible,

Jim
Pilot - PNP
