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?

I would be interested in more info on this.

That wouldn't be a treadmark on top of the pilot's seat cause by the
Cessna's wheel would it?

I have been searching for it and haven't had any luck so far. This site
is interesting: http://www.birdstrike.org/ In the blue column on the
left side click on "significant bird strike events and also the FAA-USDA
report below it. The Top ten Bird Strke Myths is interesting too. The
highest known strike occurred at 37,000 feet.

THIS place is Usenet. THESE newsgroups are rec.aviation.* and are
ASCII -only, though there are other newsgroups for posting binaries.

So where'd you see this?

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.

I can't address that particular strike, but I do recall one in Turkey
where the leading edges of both wings of a C-130 had dings from flying
into a flock of small birds. If memory serves, this was in the 1979 time
frame, there was a total of 7 dings. Within a few days of the C-130
event one of the F-4E in my unit took a similar bird on the top of the
nose about a foot in front of the wind screen. It penetrated into the
aircraft. I no longer recall the total damage.

In Spain we had condors to contend with. We lost the head off an F-4E
pave spike laser designator pod from a condor strike. After removing the
pod we had to remove its rack. The poor girl who did it was covered in
bird parts.

Another condor strike, also F-4E, resulted in the airplane being
shipped back to Germany a year later for serious structural repair. The
bird got cut into two big parts by the leading edge of the left
variramp. One part tore the side of the intake a few feet in and tore
the CSD dome on the engine as well as FODding out the engine itself. The
other part entered the rear cockpit damaging all kinds of wiring. The
left wing tank was punched off, but the right one couldn't be
jettisoned. It was summer, so you can imagine what the rear cockpit
smelled like the next day.

An interesting aside here is all bird parts from strikes were sent to
Warner-Robbins in plastic bags. I guess some GM 9 zillion had to certify
it was a bird and not a cow or something.
