Santa’s Reindeer Join Test Flights
Santa’s A-Team of Rudolph, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen have officially joined the test flights of Santa’s sleigh, currently somewhere over Japan. You can see the map tracking the test flights at this link.
The inclusion of Santa’s reindeer in the test flights, especially in December, is quite rare. But handlers and trainers in the Reindeer Operations Department say the move has been made to help the reindeer get some work in before they fly with Santa later this month.
There have been reports that the reindeer may also soon meet up with Santa for a “special mission”, but details on that have not been released.
The test flights will not be taking on any changes just because these reindeer have joined the squad. They will continue the regular test flight schedule as long as they are involved.
It is not know how long they will be working with the test flights of Santa’s sleigh.
In the meantime, reports of the performance of Santa’s new sleigh continue to be very positive. Flight engineers anticipate the sleigh being ready for Santa to fly in plenty of time.
