It broke my heart when I found out that this whole scheme was a joke! what a practical business model, flying pets. That would work almost as well as independence air. The airplanes in those photos were cropped from IFL's website. Those are all their airframes, but with paws on them.

I just checked out their website, seems pretty elaborate for a joke. But even if it is for real I doubt they'd stay in business long. Who can afford to send Fido on vacation these days?
I'm still tempted to send them a resume just to see what happens. It's better than unemployment, and I'd much rather fly critters than people any day.

I hope they have secondary crew o2 systems. We put an old bulldog in the cockpit of a 727 once from MIA-SJU as a favor to the elderly couple that owned him. Once the cabin leveled off, the reduced air pressure had the same effect on his gaseous discharge system. No amount of perfume from the F/A's would kill the smell of that methane discharge. We went on crew o2 for the rest of the flight it was that bad.
Thankfully they could recharge the system in SJU. The Chief Pilot laughed his ass off. Seems it used to happen a lot more in the round motor days......

Haha! I was just about to say that it looks like an IFL CV! You can even see the "I" and part of the "F". So glad this was a joke!

So remember how they were going to be using 72's and such? Now it's moved down to a Beech 1900. I thought that's what Suburban Air operated in the first place. It also looks like they have a Beech 99 opening with an upgrade to the 1900.
