Plane Pull


image What IS the actual Plane Pull?
A benefit for Special Olympics Virginia, the pull is a fun team competition to see which group can pull a 150,000+ pound cargo jet the fastest.  Teams are made up of 20 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.
