Nope. It went staight down. Splat!


Did you put the feathers on the =outside= of the pillow? They have to
be outside, in the airflow, to provide any lift at all.


Not only that, I'll bet he didn't give the pillow any directions, as to
which direction to fly. The pillow thought it was *supposed* to fly
straight down!

No, no! The feathers were from Oz and the pillow really was flying.
