why flight planning at home is difficult

I've had that exact problem. The only difference is that my cats (2) are short-hair black.
 
Whats the problem - just route your flight around the class C airspace.

(C as in Cat ;))
 
But it's such a long way around .....

(It'd be worse if she were using a sectional)
 
it's so tough to sneak off and grab the camera when they do this. usually they follow you unless you hurry.
 
Looks like a TFR for Camp David (Tail Fur Restriction)
 
my other cat is her sister - looks VERY similar, slightly shorter black hair but still fluffy.

did you post your cat pictures? (both of you?)

And the cat should care about this, why??? ;)

Ours just have learned to recognize the camera, and leave as soon as they see it...

Ah, the old Animal Defensive Interference Zone (ADIZ).

Best to steer clear, lest you have to claw your way out. :D

I about had a hairball trying to choke that one down... ;)
 
Nothing a burlap bag a body of water can't solve.
 
I'm with Ed Fred on this one :) Only risk for my flight planning at home is that my Samoyed will steal and eat the sectional while my back is turned. Then I just have to fly the GPS I suppose ;)

Oops!! Can't seem to save the file correctly and forward it. It's animated but I can only send the still.

That's just more practice and she'd get more flying time out of it. Nothing wrong with more flying time is there?

She could have been using several WAC charts and had a St Bernard.
 
A friend sent me this yesterday, readers of this thread ought to enjoy it.

As seen in a dog's diary:

7 am - Oh boy! A walk! My favorite!
8 am - Oh boy! Dog food! My favorite!
9 am - Oh boy! The kids! My favorite!
Noon - Oh boy! The yard! My favorite!
2 pm - Oh boy! A car ride! My favorite!
3 pm - Oh boy! The kids! My favorite!
4 pm - Oh boy! Playing ball! My favorite!
6 pm - Oh boy! Welcome home Mom! My favorite!
7 pm - Oh boy! Welcome home Dad! My favorite!
8 pm - Oh boy! Dog food! My favorite!
9 pm - Oh boy! Tummy rubs on the couch! My favorite!
11 pm - Oh boy! Sleeping in my people's bed! My favorite!


As seen in a cat's diary:

Day 183 of my captivity... My captors continued to taunt me with bizarre
little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am
forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope
of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from clawing the furniture.
Tomorrow I may eat another house plant. Today my attempt to kill my
captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost
succeeded - must try this at the top of the stairs. In an attempt to
disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself
to vomit on their favorite chair - must try this on their bed.
Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body in an attempt to
make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear in
their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little
cat I was. Hmmm, not working according to plan. There was some sort of
gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the
event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food. More
important, I overheard that my confinement was due to my powers of
inducing "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my
advantage.

I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The
dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is
obviously a half-wit. The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an
informant and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my
every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety
is assured. But I can wait; it is only a matter of time.
 
The difference between how dogs and cats think:
The Dog: He gives me food. He gives me water. He must be a god.
The Cat: He gives me food. He gives me water. I must be a god!

I know not everyone here is a cat lover, and I recognize that these remarks are intended as humor, but I'd ask you to bear in mind that humor is subjective, and some people might find remarks like this extremely offensive.

People can be very emotional about their pets...please bear that in mind. :)

ED, Frog house!!!!! :frog: Now!

Elizabeth, Well that would pass for our "Inky's" twin. We have a Turkish Angora that I got in IL for my wife after her old man kitty passed last turkey day. Great cats!

We have three cats and a Italian MAstif, Maggie is 4 months and just broke the 85 lb mark.......now if she would only learn how to control all 4 paws at one time.

I'll have to dig out a few pics!

And here is our Italian Mastif Maggie at only 8 weeks....I need to develop rolls of film

Not sure that table could handle a St. Bernard... :rofl:

True. It probably could after the table legs give out though. ;) I wonder how big a St Bernard is in WAC miles. It could be a new aviation measuring unit kind of like AMU's are.

I didn't know you could flight plan on the kitchen table without at least salt and pepper shakers and a butter knife though. Weird.

Anyone else catch that her wall is almost sectional yellow?

As a member of PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals), I think we all recognize the sounds of humor coming from the cat strings.... :D

having grown up with St Bernards (Mom raised and showed them) I can attest the dog would completely flatten the table. it isn't actually a kitchen table, though it's currently sitting in my breakfast nook, I think it's more of a side table with leaves (folded up it's maybe 25x25 and I think each leaf is about the same - it's great for buffets and flight planning.) my dining room table however weighs more than a St Bernard and I bet a pony could stand on it. :)

you missed my post from a few months ago! completely without planning or forethought (beyond subliminal), my colors in my house are eerily similar to a sectional. bright yellow in kitchen, soft yellow in dining room, slate blue and grey-green elsewhere. and pale grey-purple in 3 of the bathrooms. I swear I did not plan this at all.

awwwwwwwwwwwwww. let me guess - that's your fireplace, it's a bit nippy out, and they are all stretched out next to it. love it when they all lay belly up - means they are completely comfortable and completely trust their surroundings! sorry about your Rotti.

your mastif is going to be bigger than a St. Bernard! I've seen them up close and personal - wow! big dogs.

Nope. I saw the colors post at the time. I found it rather amusing that you did that completely by accident. I stamped you as hopeless aviation fanatic about the time I saw the colors. It's nice to see you followed through with the paint scheme.

You gonna need a bigger plane...and a doggie seat belt 'cause Maggie is gonna exceed to max load in the baggage bay.

Dogs have masters, cats have staff.

I know, I've had both (and love both).
