SNAKES ON A PLANE!!! FIR REAL MON!!!
Pilot Finds Snake Stowaway Inside Cockpit
By Associated Press

Sat Jun 3, 3:47 AM

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Monty Coles was 3,000 feet in the air when he discovered a stowaway peeking out at him from the plane's instrument panel: a 4 1/2-foot snake.

Coles was taking a leisurely flight over the West Virginia countryside in his Piper Cherokee last weekend and was preparing to land in Ohio when the snake revealed itself.

"Nothing in any of the manuals ever described anything like this," said the 62-year-old Cross Lanes resident.

3. Actually, brown tree snakes were spread all over the South Pacific...
by stowing away in aircraft.
