Has anyone ever disposed of cremated remains from a light plane?
How did you do it? All suggestions/ideas gratefully received.
Saw it done at Kupper airport once. They took a piece of PVC pipe about 4" or
so in diameter and about 18" or so long and sealed one end with duct tape. IIRC,
they had a small plastic bag to cover the top. They placed the ashes inside and
taped the pipe to the right wing strut where it could be easily reached by a
man leaning out the window. The retaining strap on the window was removed so
that the window could be opened completely.
As the plane cruised by the drop point, a passenger leaned out the window and
pulled the duct tape loose. It seemed to me that he had a little trouble with
it. You could get fancier and cap the pipe end with screw-in inspection plugs.

Some people think they hear a call to the priesthood when what they really
hear is a tiny voice whispering "It's indoor work with no heavy lifting".
