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.
