Technically, I think that’s “a snake on a plane.”

Personally, I’d love to see a gag about [Snake](http://www.24-7simpsons.com/images.php?image=/snake%201.jpg) on a plane. 😉

That’s what I was picturing, too. It looks to me like the snakes are working their way up to larger operations - first one small snake on a small aircraft, and later, hundreds of snakes on jets.
