Need a tow? by cdonohoue

Need a tow?

I am in Asheville, North Carolina. It rained for our entire drive down but that is OK as the rest of the week looks great. So no great Fall shots today but I think this is just as good. This was taken in the Cracker Barrel parking lot. How that car can tow the helicopter is beyond me but I was hysterical when I saw it.
I can see the blades are tethered so it will be just like a long caravan. If they go too fast, though, it might take off! Enjoy Asheville!

Is that it for the flower shots? Is it safe for Cromwell to return to the land of Cathy-Photos? Ah, I see a manly man shot of a helicopter, so I'm assuming yes.

Not something you see everyday! Love Asheville... have a great stay (I'd recommend Tupelo Honey's downtown for breakfast if you haven't tried it before! )

You don't see that everyday!! Fun shot!!

I'm surprised they didn't take the rotor off for transportation. I wouldn't have thought that this was legal with so much of the tail hanging beyond the end of the trailer. I wonder if the Army knows one of their choppers are missing?
Great find and capture Cathy!

Very unusual tow!! Great capture!!

Wow, that must be a shock when a car towing something like that is passing you on a highway. haha
October 9th, 2012  
Haha - imagine seeing that rotor in your rear-view mirror!

@cromwell you make me laugh Cromwell. This photo looks pretty safe.

I think it would be a tad unsettling to see this tootling down the road.

Never would have imagined they would tow a helicopter. And Cracker Barrel, one of my favorite places to eat!!!
