A Bangladeshi pilot needed first aid after a stowaway cat got into the cockpit of his aircraft and attacked him.
The cat pounced on the pilot after managing to get into the cockpit of the plane flying from the north-eastern city of Sylhet to the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka, a report in the New Age daily said yesterday.
The pilot, who works for the national carrier Biman Bangladesh Airlines, was not seriously hurt.
On arrival at Dhaka's Zia International Airport, the cat evaded security staff and escaped.
It was finally caught in the airport two hours later, the report said.

Forget it. It was one of the Viking kitties who thought the pilot was a DU troll.

I once witnessed a Cessna 172 land at a small uncontrolled field, and the pilot exited the aircraft a bloody pulp.
It seems that his wife insisted on taking a cat home from a sister she was visiting.
In the course of the flight the cat got out of his box and started running in loops inside the cockpit. His route happened to be up the pilots side and head, across the ceiling and down the passenger, across their laps to start over again..
The pilot not able to stand the pain any longer and fearing the loss of an eye, leaned back and opened his window, the cat departed the aircraft at that time.
There has to be a ground component to this story, but I don't know the details

To cap it all off... his wife was bitching at him for opening the window, as he dabbed the blood from his face.
Go figure

Someone needs to post that fat cat with the beer in his paw pic.
Obviously, the pilot-attacking kitty had way too much alcohol in his system. Fear of flying, you know. :)
