The New Forest Show UK is due to take place from 25-27th July 2006 in Brockenhurst and here you will be able to see a wonderful airborne sight,a French aviator has brought into this country not just his microlight aeroplane but a flock of Geese as well ! he takes off and the geese follow in close formation,the stunt has required special dispensation from the aviation authorities.

***Thats the one ! I think that was filmed in Canada if I remember correctly,what a wonderful experience it must be for the aviator,there was also the dog that would go hang gliding as a puppy with its owner who had a hang glider,the problem was that the dog got too big and heavy to fly eventually.

And there is the pilot of a Stampe biplane who takes his dog flying in the front cockpit,complete with doggie goggles.

....like the film Fly Away Home!

It was filmed in Canada (They were Canada Geese!) and then the flight was down the Eastern Seaboard, I can't remember where the destination was.

It was actually a nicely filmed movie and some very good aerial sequences.
