Plane Pull
Posted on 01 October 2005
Today we went to Dulles Airport for the 13th Annual Plane Pull. The Plane pull was a fundraiser for the Virginia Special Olympics. There was two groups (AOL Dulles and AOL Reston) of 20 men/women from AOL competing, along with other major companies. The Reston Team had beaten the Dulles Team and was ranking 3rd overall at the time of our departure. This was not some small Cessna. This was a FedEx cargo plane named “Two Bears”, the plane is a Boeing 727 which weighted in at 148,000 pounds. Our goal was to pull this plane 12 feet. It was easier that it sounded, actually. We were able to pull the plane that distance in 7.501 seconds. The results of the plane pull.
