Looks like the dog grabbed the guy's headset to try to steady himself.

I have flown dogs and cats. No problems, but no zero G's.

She doesn't stick her head out the window?

y'all??


My dog flies with me, but I don't subject her to zero G's. She just sits
in the back and looks out the window.

Difficult in a Cherokee, but I'm sure she wants to!

Now, seriously... do you think that having adrift animals in the cockpit is
such a cool idea? Not a wise thing in a car, imagine in a three-axis moving
vehicle...
And if I ever did I'd do my best to ensure that they stay on the seat... no
zero G's excursion. I don't want the animal to knock my head around, much
less get panicky and start yapping, biting, running around the controls.
IMHO it's one of the dumbest ideas you could ever have.
Sorry but couldn't resist. Had to say it.

I doubt if most people are doing zero G manuevers while their pets are in
the back. Personally, I fly more conservatively when my dog's aboard. I'd
be more concerned about having some whining, crying child in the backseat.
Zena just sits there and looks out the window, or lays down. If no one is
with me in the passenger seat, I'll use a bungee cord to prevent the seat
from flopping forward. I have considered putting a harness on her, with a
short lead to the seatbelt anchors. I just want to make sure she's as
comfortable as possible. She doesn't fly with me all that often.

And on top of this, the glider will smell like dog after a couple of
hours...

Zena looks pretty calm and happy.
I bring my Jack Russell Terrier, Rudder, with me, but she's in a small
crate in the back of a C-152 and usually asleep before I've reached the
airport boundary. I would not consider having her ride out of the crate,
but JRTs are different ... she'd be wanting to fly and filing PIREPS
("how was the ride?" "Ruff" ... it's an OLD joke, I know).

Bah .. nothing

We used to make the winter overhaul in an old piggery... now that's a smell!
And... lasted at least a few weeks in the season.
