Want to pull a plane? On Saturday, August 16, 2008, the Long Beach Airport will be hosting the 2nd Annual Special Olympics Plane Pull. This popular event is your opportunity to pull a 155,000 lb. FedEx 727-200 airplane on the airport’s tarmac, while raising money for a worthy charity! Put together a team of your strongest friends and you could win this good-natured competition. Prizes will be awarded to the fastest and slowest teams.
