Dogs Learning to Fly - Seriously!

Looks like flying or flight simming has "gone to the dogs"... (sorry, couldn't leave that thought out).  Thought this article and video interesting.

I have known several airport dogs that will jump in anyone's plane for a free flight but this is the first time I have sen them at the controls.

Now that is just so cool! I have to wonder though how well they did at maintaining altitude during the turns...

Teach an old dog new tricks. Very cool. But when do they get to do their first solo flight?

is it sponsored by Google! I bet it is amusing to hear it respond to the air traffic controller,woof woof

It was once said that in the future, aircraft would be flown by computers, but there would still be a human and a dog in the cockpit.  The human's job would be to monitor things, the dog's job would be to prevent the human from changing things.  Guess now the human better start looking for a new job. :wink:
