Why are they flying horses, jesus, just pick up a rental horse at the destination.
TOTAL PRIZE MONEY | 4.1 million CAD
Horse racing too
Thankfully not as much as there used to be. 6/9 tracks closed this last year in California alone.
#KillRacingNotHorses
I didn't read the article, but I assume they have to customize all the controls so a horse hoof can still operate them. That alone would make the cockpit huge.
They were. Just Google huge horse cockpits
Fun fact: This was in fact a parabolic flight. NASA was trying to figure out how horses would behave on the ISS and if they can be used as emotional support animals for stressed out astronauts.
I cannot imagine the vet bill were that true.
Why...pray tell...would anyone want to know how horses would behave on the ISS? You couldn't even fit a horse in that thing!
Funfact: there are several airlines specializing in horse transport. One of them is called "Air Horse One".
What is that gray thing on their neck?
Neck pillow, duh.
Some sort of loose restraint so they can't rear back maybe?
Maybe so they can’t bite each other
Ryanair taking notes.
I am not sure - this was originally posted to Reddit 3 years ago, and it doesn't look like anyone asked that question.
This is what's wrong with this fucking world.
Flying goddamn horses, and people can't afford medicine or rent.
The smell in there must be ungodly
Just wait until you have to peel back the gill liner during heavy check.
I don't understand, how do they get the food and drinks trolley past all that?
Business class, nice! Can I have prosecco instead of champagne? Thanks.
How else would they fly? They don't have wings
Ok now show us how planes fly on horses.
you know, we had a way of transporting horses way back in time; it was called "riding". basically the horses have legs and they can walk ... (/s)
Unfortunately they refuse to cross the ocean when you’re riding them.
That must be incredibly scary for the horses.
I've had it with all these motherfucking horses on this motherfucking plane!
Can I fly with the horses? That looks so comfortable.
They get decent legroom at least.
No window seat? Restraints around their necks? Must be Spirit Air.
No entertainment or food service means that's a long time doing nothing with no view. Bored horse a board.
Like, I know why they wouldn’t put widows but I still think they should put windows
OK, but if you get on a horse's back, are you riding, or flying?
You're riding in the reference frame of the plane.
A few months ago I ate horse sashimi in hida Japan, I'd like to think those horses got to have a fun airplane ride to get there like I did
I have tried horse meat at a Mongolian restaurant once. I'm always scared to admit it...
No in-flight movie? Cheapskate owners couldn't spring for business class?
This seems dangerous. What if the engines stall?
LOL ITS LUNAR NEW YEAR YEAR OF THE HORSE so fitting 🤣
My zodiac animal is also horse LOL
This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
