Meeting A Goose at 11,000 Ft.

It is not a goose..
It is a mid air between the Baron climbing head on into the blind side of a
Cessna 180 just west of Tehachapi CA. The right main of the Cessna went
through the right side windshield and opened up the Baron like a can opener.
The Baron pilot was climbing and was heads down in the cockpit. The Cessna
was straight and level, the Baron climbing up into his blind spot below the
right side engine cowling and panel. The right main and right wing lift
strut failed, causing the right wing to fail and he spun in. He never got
out. He was a friend and co-worker.
The Baron landed on a farmers runway.

I just received these images from a fellow pilot. Good thing there
wasn't a copilot in that seat.
