More Snakes On A Plane.

In this case, endangered Siberian Yak Snakes.

Yes, I had been drinking when these photos were taken.

No snakes were harmed in the making of these photos.

Mustang Driver,
I found these in my hangar yesterday while I was searching for a Stearman part. They are left over from my days at Evergreen's Marana, AZ facility. I was having problems with the birds pooping all over the B-17 and the other planes in the hangar. The blow up "Scare Eye" beach ball worked well until a Cactus Wren pecked a hole in it. The hard wired rotating sonic device only served as a good platform for a Starling's nest. The snakes worked but only if you I moved them every twenty minutes and that got old very fast since I had about 50 rubber snakes to move. I tried the snakes again in the shade port at Creve Coeur Airport when I moved back to St. Louis. It turns out the birds in Missouri are at least as smart as the birds in Arizona. :?

I am not a snake fan, so I would have needed a drink as well.

Al, if I may suggest,

The birds come and poop on your planes; so why don't you go and poop on their nests? It seems only fair to me : )

That'll teach them little feathered "besterds" : )


Saludos,


Tulio
