    Cobra Takes Bird Strike

    I had a "intelligent" pigeon slam into the SIDE of my car as I was accelerating down the onramp onto the 202. Nailed the side mirror and door !

    I think there was a bird strike on a helicopter coming back from Grand Canyon and an emergency landing was needed as the pilot was hurt.

    Cool, I came out here to get started in aviation. Flying's a little expensive so I'm stuck on the ground, for now.
