Tomcat's anyone??




OK, I'll bite, where's the canopy????????????????


The way I remember the story is as follows:

Bird flock strike, took out the canopy and stopped one engine. Pilot called
eject, eject eject. RIO went. Pilots seat would not go. Engine that went out
did the hydraulics so no gear. Landed belly up and I think this was in a
practice area near Fallon, NV.

Of course at my age there are a lot of cobwebs in my head's memory section.
