More animal friendly too - we wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of PETA by nailing horses hoofs to the wings of an aircraft so we'll velcro them instead.

Surely everyone knows that velcro has such an adverse effect on the plane's aerodynamics that it is a non-starter.
Did you not pay attention in school or something ??

How about putting the horses in the plane and nailing the marshalls to the wings ???
