Flying With Dog
Posted: Wed May 27, 2020 7:52 am
I put my dog in a pet carrier in my LSA and secure it with the safety belt. What do other folks do? Can you trust them not to jump on your lap or play with the control stick?

Sadly, Jason my current golden, gets motion sick; I'd be afraid to take him up in my LSA fearing he'd barf all over and possibly interfere with my control of the plane.

Did Baxter have ear protection?
No issues but is not hot in Maine, Delta has shown no symptoms or complaints other than she wants a set of Noise Cancaling LIght Speed Zulu’sWm.Ince wrote:Question:
For those of you who have used the Mutt Muffs or similar, have their use caused any ear complications on the animals? I suspect the muffs would cause more perspiration in the ear canals, which would increase the likelihood of ear infection.
Just wondering.
