Are you saying some passenger wore that for the entire flight?

Byron, he said to cut it out with the pet pictures!

The poodle was too busy to pose this afternoon, but here's part of a pile of hail in my front yard 2 hours after the storm passed...

My friend said that the guy put it on after takeoff and kept it on most of the flight. Don't know exactly when he took it off but its a 2 hr from from DC to Atlanta, so its safe to say that he wore it for at least 1.5 hrs.

I carried all my gear on a flight for a quick sailing trip last year. I was worried about my inflatable pfd so I checked the TSA regulations. Surprisingly you can carry a CO2 canistered inflatable pfd onboard a flight. I figured it's not really for sailors, but rather for people like this

How about "pet turkey" and an offspring???

We eat the others or sell them to other people to eat.

Today we had protesters visit!

The crew gets smaller every year. This time they had 30-40 people, a few signs and a giant Obama. I think they were for nuclear disarmament.
