Found that somewhere in cyberspace (soory, no cow but deer) ... This CFI and his Student are holding on the runway for departing cross traffic when suddenly a deer runs out of the nearby woods, stops in the middle of the runway, and just stands there looking at them. Tower: Cessna 123 cleared for take-off. Std: What should I do? What should I do? Inst: What do you think you should do? Std: Maybe if I taxi toward him it'll scare him away. Inst: That's a good idea. (Taxi toward deer, but deer is macho, and holds position.) Tower: Cessna 123 cleared for take-off, runway 12. Std: What should I do? What should I do? Inst: What do you think you should do? Std: Maybe I should tell the tower. Inst: That's a good idea. Std: Cessna 123, uh, there's a deer down here on the runway. (long pause) Tower: Roger 123, hold your position - Deer on runway 12 cleared for immediate departure. (Two seconds, and then -- I presume by coincidence -- the deer bolts from the runway, and runs back into the woods.) Tower: Cessna 123 cleared for departure, runway 12. Caution wake turbulence, departing deer. ... (source unknown)
