Plane Pullers To Unite At Lehigh Valley For Good Cause

Benefit For MDA Aims To Move B727 Twelve Feet

So what's the big deal about moving an airplane? You get a pilot, a little go-juice and you move. Worse comes to worse... you get a tug.

But at Lehigh Valley International Airport, none of the above applies.

On September 30, it'll take people power to move a 167,000-lbs Boeing 727 a total of 12-feet... by pulling it.

The airplane pull will benefit the Muscular Distrophy Association. Competitors will form up in team of 15-to-20 people each.

Good effort for a good cause... but we hope there'll be plenty of ice packs and a little Ben Gay within easy reach when the pulling is done.
