Saw this on another list. Apologies if it is a repeat here but I don't think
so. C172 took it on the strut.

A Turkey Buzzard may be many things but beautiful is not one of them.

IJust a guess, but would suspect it's due to the giddy relief felt
because Mr. Cessna's strut didn't detach mid-flight...?
