Hahaha. I love that they used a Lilly Allen song about her little brother smoking weed.

Half a century spent proving “it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Having flown gliders on the South Island of NZ and flown with Kiwi pilots in the Great Basin, I have come to the conclusion that they lack the "fear gene" and instead got extra "fun genes" in its place.

World-class pilots and the the locale rock! Highly recommended.

Ok, what the hell are they doing? I'm not sure that taking a sheep for an airplane ride proves much. An equivalent weight of salt would be a smarter cargo.

He, he....any excuse to fly. It looks like fun. It reminds me of a video that the BLM used to show us each year for training. Can't really remember why they showed it to us. It might have been just to give us a break from the mundane. Anyway, it was a vid from the Big Island where a rancher decided to use a helicopter to round up his cattle. They tied...yes, literally tied a guy to the skid and gave him a rope that was tied to the helicopter. They would then fly over the cattle, rope them however they could, usually around the horns or a leg, and whisk them away. They would deposit them in the back of a large, cattle hauling truck. It was pretty funny, although I think I heard that the FAA didn't think that way and that they violated the pilot.
