Taking Your Dog on Vacation
New changes in airline regulations with regards to pets on a plane have made airplane travel with dogs much easier. Most airlines will allow small sized breeds in the passenger section of the plane provided they are in specific type of dog carriers, which you can also pack large dog sweaters and coats in, that are on an approved list provided by the airline. Dog breeds that are medium or large in stature will need to be crated and travel within the luggage compartment on the place, which can pose its own set of concerns.
Dogs that are traveling with owners have to be obedient and not cause undo noise or a problem in the plane. Typically if the dog is restless or barking or whining he or she will have to be crated and put in the cargo compartment or the owner and dog will have to arrange for another flight. If you are concerned about the dogs mental wellbeing on the plane, you may contact your vet to discuss prescribing a mild sedative which may help your pup stay calm during the flight. The dog’s carrier will need to fit under the seat, just like any other piece of luggage. The only dogs that can be on the plane out of a carrier are guide dogs and even they are trained to lie down under the seat ahead of their masters. Most airlines only allow a specific number of dogs in the plane so be sure to notify the airline when you book your ticket that you are bringing a dog on the plane with you. If you book your ticket online phone the airline and make sure they have noted that you are bringing a dog on board to prevent any confusion during the security clearance and boarding process.
Larger dogs that are traveling in crates will require special care. Do not feed or give water to the dog for at least six hours prior to the flight, which will help minimize the change of vomiting or messing in the crate. And if you bought stuff like dog clothes and accessories and packed them in the crate, make sure they are secure. Provide soft, washable bedding in the crate as well as a toy for the dog to stay occupied. Make sure the crate is approved by the airline, phone ahead or check on the airline website for specific types and measurements of dog crates that are approved. It is also important to secure the door with bungee cords or other fasteners don’t just rely on the crate closure. If it catches on luggage or is bumped during handling it can spring open and your dog can get loose in the airport.

Tips on Flying Remote Control Airplanes
People who have never flown remote control airplanes before may be a bit hesitant to do so for fear of crashing their new toys. The following tips will help one become more confident when piloting remote control airplanes.
1. Never fly on a very windy day. Determine approximate wind speed by tying a ribbon to the end of the transmitter’s antenna. Hold the controller parallel to the ground. If the ribbon is parallel to the ground, it’s too windy. If the ribbon is less than 30 degrees, then it is okay to fly.
2. Determine wind direction by throwing some pieces of grass or light material into the air. Fly remote control airplanes into the wind for optimal performance.
3. If launching by hand, a friend can launch the plane for you so you can keep your hands on the controls at all times.
4. Practice flying in an oval-shaped pattern, keeping all turns in a single direction. When you’re comfortable with doing so, fly in the opposite direction, also in an oval pattern. When you’ve mastered both directions, you can try flying in a figure 8 pattern.
5. When landing remote control airplanes, first take note of the wind direction to land into the wind. Reduce power slowly, allowing the airplane to almost glide on its own. Cut the throttle when it is 5 feet from the ground.
6. Find and learn from an instructor or experienced flyer. You might also want to consider joining a flying club. Some even have a club trainer plane, so you can practice before buying your own airplane. Club members will also be able to give useful advice.
7. Fly in wide open spaces. Places with a lot of people, such as parks, are not ideal for beginners as you might hurt somebody.
8. Read your model’s manual. Usually, remote control airplane models vary in functions and technicalities.
9. Crashes are inevitable. Don’t beat yourself up if you can’t get it right the first few times. Just keep practicing to improve your flying skills.
Above all, have fun!
