2000' AGL

So when they fly above 2000, you can go ahead and shoot'em?????

Only if the wing mount guns are properly STC'ed.



I'm think'en just hang the Long Tom out the side window of a cub.

But all jokes aside, I bet ya a nickle it's been done before.

Remember the story of the drunk flyer, that shot his own plane, while
hunting from the air?

Shot himself right out of the sky, as I remember.

'Course, that could just be another urban legend. g

I knew a guy that was shot down by one of his own waist gunners - does that
count? The gun mount broke and the gunner didn't let go of the trigger as he
(and the gun) fell backwards...

Not an urban legend. There was a write up of it some aviation book and
the NTSB apparently said something like, if that one guy hadn't lived a
few days and told us what happened we would have NEVER imagined this!

I can certainly imagine it. I bet there have been a lot of Cyotes shot from
a cub, or at least shot at.

Lots of them up in Nebraska in the 50's when I was a kid. If nothing else
they'd direct all the rednecks in the pickups which way to go.....

I have seen a few hunts here in Oklahoma too. I have never participate in
hunt, but I have chased them in an ultralight. Probably right up there with
the most fun I have ever had flying.

I think this may be the NTSB report for the incident in question:

Or maybe it was this one:

Other hunts gone bad:

As I recall these idiots were trying to shoot an eagle. IMHO they
deserved to go down. They also had picked up the aircraft at one
airport, flown to another airport to pick up their buddies and the beer,
then went flying...
