Cowplane!

Today is another critical milestone in the history of aviation. On February 18, 1930, Elm Farm Ollie became the first cow to ever fly in an airplane. During her flight, she was also milked and the milk was sealed in paper containers and parachuted to the ground.

  2. Did the milk survive the drop or did it become butter on the way down? Welcome back. Does this mean you have a new computer?
