Want to pull a plane to benefit Special Olympics athletes?
On August 8th, teams of 25 will pull a FedEx Airbus 310 aircraft a total distance of 25 feet on the tarmac of Long Beach Airport.
This test of strength and endurance puts men and women against machine as teams play tug-of war with an aircraft. Law Enforcement agencies, Fire Departments, as well as Powerlifters and Bodybuilders, private companies, colleges and the local community are all welcome to come out to try and pull this plane 25 feet. The winners will receive valuable prizes and a year's worth of official bragging rights!
