I hit a buzzard with a Cessna 172 at 3,000Ft. I saw it coming, but too late. I pulled the nose up, and clipped off his right wing with the propeller. It made a sound like a saw going thru a 2x4.

I looked out my window, and saw the buzzard flapping one wing as it spiraled out of control for a half mile towards the earth. Most awesome road kill ever.

That's just plane wrong!

how many times you heard that one before flyou? [8D]

Hey, Kewl, Flyou must've been on a flight path..?
I hit a sparrow at around 80 MPH - thought someone'd hit me in the head with a bat - noise was incredible.
Our club chairman hit a pheasant with his helmet at about the same speed - broken nose, whiplash, stitches, new helmet, etc etc. How he stayed upright, God knows......[X(]

Too many lol. I've killed countless birds with airplanes. It happens all the time. I think, if I were to guess, I'd say about 30 or 40... That one was the most memorable one.

Hah, by buddy took out a 40lb canadian goose with a cessna 310 at about 200mph this past summer. It's currently having the interior redone, as it went through the passenger windshield and headrest of the passenger seat and coated the whole rear of the interior in blood and feathers. It hit so hard that a portion of the top of the plane had to be reskinned.
I hit a finch with a 172...

just the other day I went over to a friend's house on my bike and on the way back at about 30mph a dog ran perpendicular to my line of travel. practically blew the brake lines trying to stop but ended up running over his tail. I was pissed so I stopped and looked for him but he ran away, goddamn rednecks and their leashless pets are gonna kill someone...30mph I know but still.

I hit a beaver once that was no kidding every bit of 80 lbs, thing was huge and ended up jarring a ball joint loose and destroying the inner fender well of my 93 z24. hit it at about 70mph with the left front wheel.

is it a federal crime to kill a bald eagle?
