No one in Yellville will say if they expect wild turkeys to fall from planes for this year's annual Turkey Trot Festival, but the Federal Aviation Administration says it will be watching. An FAA spokesman says the agency will track any pilot who drops wild turkeys over the tiny town in north Arkansas. Offenders could lose their pilot licenses.
The spokesman, Lynn Lunsford, says no one in town will tell them who flies the planes. Fans of the drop say it doesn't hurt the turkeys, which float to the ground. Lunsford says he's seen video of a turkey falling straight down and bouncing off the roof of a building.
