UPS Plane Pull for Charity

"This phot shows our 2009 UPS Team competing in a benefit Plane Pull for the Special Olympics Virginia. The pull is a fun team competition to see which group can pull a 164,000+ pound air bus (pictured with the UPS Team) the fastest. Teams are made up of 25 members, who all line up adjacent to a huge rope attached to the aircraft. The starter signals when to start and starts the stopwatch. After the team pulls the aircraft 12 feet, the stopwatch stops and the elapsed time is recorded as the team score. This event was on October 3rd, 2009 at Dulles Airport." - UPS_Plane_Pull_Team (Oct 23, 2009)
