Cat doesn't like landing :)

You watch the video and he seems quite happy right up until the plane touches down. I know people who take cats on their sailboat and they are happy on the boat but hate riding in the car. Seems like the feeling of rolling across the ground bothers them.

Just a question,

Is that plane doing a flip?

Hi technobill,

Did you mean the youtube clip with the dog?
I think the pilot was doing what we used to call - a long time ago, in my skydiving days - a "zoomie". A "vomit comet" run. Dive to build up speed, pull up, then push the stick forward just enough to give you a few seconds of zero-g. Any jump pilot worth his/her salt would readily oblige at the slightest urging of a gang of jumpers!
The experience obliviously wasn't knew to that puppy!
