bit. A bird can usually avoid anything going less than 90 knots - don't forget they get lots of flying practise as they may fly most of the day. Tell that to the Turkey Buzzard I hit at 80 knots at 2000 AGL in the Skyhawk. That's why I said 'usually'. If they didn't, we'd be continously scraping bird guts off our planes instead of bug guts. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |
