Another start-up airline coming

Sounds like a winner.  ;/

www.petairways.com   An airline for pets only.

On the plus side, they are hiring.

I see mega fail in their future.

(I noticed in the fine print they are operated by an existing freight company....)

For me, that would've been useful as hell a few years back. Moving goats by renting a truck and towing a carrier sucked.

I'm ashamed to admit that I'm so desperate for a job that I was this |...| close to sending them my resume as a mechanic.  =(

They are using Beech 1900C's which are already in freight service.  That gives a new meaning to Freight Dogs.

Could have used this a few months ago. Moving 5 cats via Grand Cherokee over three days and 1500 miles was not fun for me or the cats. Think 3 days of the Anvil Chorus done by cat yowl.

I also think it would've been considerably less stressful on the cats, too. They had to be recaptured and crated multiple times, positively freaking out each time. They still don't act right.

Cats never act right, how were you able to tell a difference?

A wok and some soy sauce would have solved/prevented that problem.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Wow, I never knew cats were partial to stir fry.

Do they prefer beef or chicken?

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Yep moved mine from PA to florida that way.  Sucked for me, sucked for the furries.  They were pissed at me for weeks.

I can just see Mommy greeting her Fluffy at, say, IAD and Fluffy is all covered in crap and yowling wildly, with bleeding eyes and ears. First Class indeed.
