The Birds are on the move...
"Jay Honeck" wrote in message ups.com... rtherly winds aloft, we were doing over 175 knots ground speed. At that speed we (and they) wouldn't have much time to "see and avoid", Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" Winds aloft have no effect on closing speeds. But you are wise to avoid birds. A friend was killed in a Beaver when an eagle went through the windshield. A KC-135 was taken out with a flock that flamed out all 4 engines. Karl "curator" N185KG
