Maybe he's a bird dog.

Yeah, or maybe a SKIPPERkee.

I didn't take my dog ("Rudder") on instructional flights, but I've
taken her pleasure flights ... why not? We take them in the car with
us, why not on the plane? What's so odd about that?

Mine insists on having her head out the window in the car........

Nothing odd, but you do have to be careful of CG issues. I remember
hearing about a group of guys that were going hunting and took their
hunting dogs with them. Upon take off, the dogs slid to the aft part
of the cargo area and the plane was rendered uncontrollable.

I don't know. I guess I just do not get "dog people."

I had a dog as a kid, and I liked the dog and all. In the end, I realize
it is just a dog. Some people like to think they are "family" and what
not, but it is just an animal.

Maybe it is not the taking the dog flying that is odd. This is probably
the mindset that thinks it is ok to bring his do to the store to go
shopping.

I guess flying is so enjoyable, that even dogs like flying. shrug I
dunno. I can not imagine the loud noise is good on his keen hearing. That
has got to hurt its ears.

How else would he pick out the food the dog likes?

Not good on people's hearing either. But it's a question of how often,
how long, how loud, and whether or not they wear noise cancelling
headsets. (yes, there are headsets for dogs).

If you find yourself saying "It's just a dog", then that says it all.

In my mind, any society is best judged on the way it treats it's animals.

Well, there ya have it then. I do like animals, quite a lot infact, but
they are just that; animals.

HaHa Yeah, I suppose you got a point. ;-)

Hmm. That is another thing I did not know. A dog headset... ANR at that.
Who would have thunk it.

It is not just dog people that I don't get.

At an operation where I was taking instruction, one of the solo students
wanted to take his hamster up for a flight.

I can't imagine why.

The management told him "no way".

I can't imagine why.
