I've heard the buried airplane story ever since I worked at the M-B plant at Pine Hill in, as I recall, 1982. I've hunted near Pleasant Hill, on Hwy 85, for 30 years, and in the late '90s early '00s, we had 2 different people report 3 cat sightings. Nobody ever got a print or a pic, but the people were dependable. I was in the truck at one of the incidents, but looking the wrong way. Not 4 or 5 miles as the crow flies from the area you all are talking about. Our experience was the same on deer size - the big ones were a long time ago, when there were row crops in the area. Still a whole lot of deer, but we haven't killed the really big ones in a while, despite a lot more disciplined approach to management.
