A stowaway cat gave a South American pilot the surprise of his life when it emerged, clinging to the wing of a plane, mid-flight.

I didn't have the patience to watch the video as it takes about 1-2 mins to do a one second spurt (due to my slow internet) but it does say it all ends happily.

Add it to the pre-take off checklist - "no live animals hiding in the cowling, wings or under the seats."

A friend watched and laughed his arse off.

 

Then recounted his preflight on a Bonanza and discovered a birds nest under the cowl.

 

It could have been a bad incident for that pussy.

 

Worse and more likely here in Oz is a badass snake greeting you in the cockpit, after it went searching for the mice who nested inside..

 

My friend also went gliding once and discovered a very angry hornet in the cockpit with him at 3000ft.

Just do a cat scan with your pre flight.
