*************************************
Man, I sure wish people would read on in the thread, before they jump down
somebody's throat. Especially commenting on a post that was made several
days ago.

For the very last time, I _thought_ I was in the _ _ _ alt.binaries_ _ _
.pictures.aviation group.

My mistake.

Sheesh.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

AND....
a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, too.

* SHEESH! *

It was a midair collision with a C180. See:

Scroll down to "Convertible Baron" near bottom of page.

Geese? Meh.

Have a mid-air collision with a fish, then we'll talk.

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.

One of the Cessna 172SP rental planes where I fly at did hit a goose, it
busted out the front windscreen, the passenger was covered in goose blood
and guts but it landed safety and was repaired. The plane only had a couple
hundred hours when it happened.

That wasn't the woman who just got her PP-ASEL and was taking her
husband up as her first pax, was it?

Our local CAP wing had a goose hit the LE of a brand new C182 wing. The
wing needed reskinning, but the plane landed safely.

It was a couple years ago now, the plane is a rental out of KMQJ. I don't
know the specifics of who was in the aircraft I am just friends with the
owner (who leases it back to the FBO and wasn't on board).

There was a goose strike several years back in OKC where the
co-pilot/passenger was killed. I think it was a C-310 making a high
speed descent into Wiley Post. There were some pictures in the newspaper
showing the goose remains strung out in the back seat and of the
windscreen damage. Anybody else recall this with maybe more details?
