    "A Delta baggage worker got a bit of a fright before Halloween when she opened a jetliner's cargo door and found a cheetah running loose amid the luggage."

    They were told a large animal got out? I would want WAY more information than that before I opened that door.

    Seriously, though, shoudn't a cage for an animal like that be totally, 100% escape proof? Geez!

    Dog Grounds Qantas Jet
    "A QANTAS jet has been grounded after a dog in the cargo hold escaped from its cage and snacked on parts of the aircraft's interior.

    The animal chewed through electrical wiring and panels so tough that they are difficult to cut with a knife."

    Obvioulsy Fido couldn't reach the FA call button.

    "An aviation engineering source said: "The dog ripped out several wires which set off the cockpit warning and then it had a go at a number of electrical units in the rear of the plane. "

    "The source said the plane had not been in any danger and probably the most surprised people were the ground workers who opened the cargo hold to be greeted by the dog."


    I'm betting those rampers were very surprised.
