Not sure if this story has been mentioned here.... but it's
quite amusing... Smile

Apparently a dog was able to release the emegerncy door
handle in the cargo area on a Virgin Blue flight.(Sydney to
Cairns)

Fortunately the door was not designed to open in the air.
The dog jumped out, once the door finally opened just after
landing. The Virgin Blue pilots saw the dog chasing the
plane and ground workers caught it.... happy ending... Smile

The dog survived that much of a fall without breaking its legs?

Obviously the dog couldn't wait for the much promoted VerminBlue "service" (or it didn't want to pay for it!) (or maybe it just wanted to try out for a VerminBlue Ramp Rat role!!)
