| Ain't no way I'd approach that airplane, unless some very angry Somalis were coming down the road in their technicals. And I still would rather take a bullet than be shredded.
This photo has been circulating among aviation types for at least a year or so. |

| My guessing average with internet photos is usually pretty good (unless there is a moose in the picture). I think this one is real. It's not like you could chase these felines away with a water hose........... It does give one pause to reconsider how tight their traveling schedule is on this given day.... |

| I call Photoshop. The lions mysteriously have no shadows. Neat picture though.

| Seen this beofre. Strip is in the Mara in kenya. No shadow at 12 noon ![Wink](https://forums.accuratereloading.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif) You just drive up to the plane, chase the lions away with the cruiser and hop in. You don't want to leave your plane unattended overnight in a bush strip. Hyenas have been known to chew on the tyres and other "intereting" parts of the aircraft rendering it unoperative.
