The hamsters have been working on their newest project for weeks. I think it is going to be a helicopter that can carry 8 hamsters. Here the hamsters are still working on the cabin, which is made with a popsicle stick frame filled in with masking tape and cardboard.
This is a peek inside the unfinished cabin. You can see the safety belts are already installed.
Presto is inside the cabin checking out the safety belts.
Stay tuned to find out more about the maiden voyage.
The hamsters are now flying around in a dragon with flapping wings. Here it is in flight. Notice that it holds 5 hamsters with room to spare. If you look closely, you might be able to see one or two of its white, frighteningly sharp teeth.
While we were away, the Ultratruck had a major mishap.
Fortunately, no hamsters were injured.
But wait! Cookie is on top of things and is coming to the rescue. He is gathering supplies and stashing them in the convenient storage compartment at the rear of the Osprey.
Now the adventurous hamsters decided that they need an Osprey (the military plane). We saw a real one in Albuquerque. Of course now the hamsters want such a vehicle of their very own, so here it is:
Here are the propellers in the take-off and landing position.
