A New Zealand dog trainer who taught RSPCA dogs to drive has done the unthinkable and managed to train dogs how to pilot a plane in a bid to prove just how capable rescue dogs can be.
Last year, animal trainer and zoologist Mark Vette spent four months in the United Kingdom working with rescue dogs for the series, Dogs Might Fly, which is only just airing in Britain.
In a world first, Mr Vette was able to successfully train three rescue dogs, Reggie, Shadow and Alfie, to fly a plane, and even perform tricks, including a figure of eight manoeuvre.

Amazing :)
Thanks for sharing
And for all those watching the series..... Look away now :P
Teach one how to safely land a plane. Then I'll be very impressed. >:D
Wait a minute. He's got his eyes closed. How does he identify another flight? Get close enough to sniff their butts?

Naaaah, the Force is wirh him :)
Maybe he's working on his instrument rating and is just peaking peeking at the panel while ignoring what's outside?
