During a private "fly-in" fishing excursion in the Alaskan wilderness,
the chartered pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane,
a bear smelled it.
This is what the bear did to the plane.

The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him

He was able to patch the plane together...and fly it home!

Yeah, bears can be darn nasty! We had a bear attack our garbage can last summer....it wasn't a pretty site!!!! From now in, in the summer, I'm freezing leftovers that would normally go in the can until we haul to the dump. We had a neighbor have to shoot a bear that was trying to get in his house! Smart pilot that thought of the duct tape!! :thumbup:
