Lol.
I just got back yesterday from a week in Hungary where I escorted a male 15 year old Orang Utan from the Sosto Zoo to our Zoo in Hong Kong to join our primate breeding programme (no wise cracks!).
Luckily we didn't need to use any tranquilisers. This ape can really rock! (his cage I mean!).
Minus 6 celsius, overnight in Luxembourg and then minus 15 in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Unbelievably they don't remove ice or snow from the runways much in Kazakhstan. You can imagine what 360 tonnes of cargo 747-400 feels like on ice!
This is one trip not easily forgotten quickly!
