Default Crazies At The Gliderport

We had a CFIG, that took his Dachson(sp?) along at least once every weekend. The dog, speedy, loved it and was very well airport trained. And then there was the tow pilot at Turf that flew with his terrier in the back window of the pawnee on every flight!

This might be actual real life implementation of the theory that all modern airliners only require a pilot and a dog in the cockpit. The pilot's job is to feed the dog. The dog's job is to bite the pilot if he touches anything.

I'm a beekeeper but my bees seem to fly just fine without my help.

If you took you bees flying with you in your glider, would they add to
the mass of the glider if they remained airborne all the while you were
airborne?

According to my calculations they do not add to it. That's only an issue with fully laden European swallows.
