Took dog for a ride

Took Chester for his first ride. I'd tried once before but when I applied takeoff power the dog started leaning on my control stick arm, and I decided it wasn't such a good idea. This time I installed a small section of 1/4" plywood between the passenger seat and the center 'console' to keep the dog on his side. Worked well. Chester was very calm. After cruising a while he lies down on the seat. When the power is pulled back he gets up to see where we are, just like in the truck.



He doesn't like less than +1g, though... Does ok on banked turns, kind of looks out the window and down.
