McDonalds try this...

[kimmacdonald1]

The birds aren't shot in in peices. They're whole (and thawed!). They get wrapped in a styrofoam container, then the bird plus styrofoam cylinder and put in the barrel of an air cannon and they're fired into the engine to simulate flying through a flock of geese. The number of birds that is fired is determined by the engine diameter.

Bird is the w--WHAT THE FUCK

[MidnightMarrow]

@redreaper2020 Bird may have said that a week earlier... It's already dead.

[irelandbloke]

[Keelman122]

[22MrHacker33]

Bingo!! 21

Those engines get real finicky without their daily frozen turkeys. Got to make sure you keep those rolls-royce beauties well fed.

[Drfusebox]

Every butchery needs one of these.

They'll chop and fry for you in less than a second.

All you have to do is setup a dinner table at the back end XD

[knifewerkz]

this is how chicken nuggets are made

THIS VIDEO IS SO DAM STUPID AND BEYONE , WHEN DO YOU EVER SEE A BIRD FLYING IN MID AIR GOING IN SIDE OF AN ENGINE IN PIECES ? THEY ARE FOOLING THE PUBLIC IN BELIVEING THAT THROWING KFC IN SIDE AN ENGINE AND THE ENGINE NOT DAMAGING SOLVED THE PROBLEM . IF YOU REALLY WANT TO SOLVED THAT PROBLEM THEN THROW A WHOLE CALIFORNIA GOOSE OR SWAN WITH FEATHERS AND ALL AND SEE WHAT HAPPENED . REMEMBER THE PLANE THAT LANDED IN THE HUDSON RIVER , IT WENT DOWN WITH FEATHERS AND ALL . NOT KFC YOU DAM ASS

@bonehead1603 Judging by your use of all-caps, I'm just going to assume you have a doctorate in aerospace engineering.

[bonehead1603]

@ffrgtm YOU SEE HOW SMART YOU ARE I DIDN,T HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU FIGURE IT OUT ALL BY YOUR SELF . YOU SEE WHEN I USED ALL CAPS YOU ACKNOWLEDGE ME IMMEDIATELY LIKE YOU JUST DID . WHICH ONE CAN YOU SEE QUICKER SMALL CAPS OR NO CAPS . SEE IT DID IT INTENDED PURPOSE DIDN,T IT ?

[carlstss]

@bonehead1603 These are frozen birds so there actually a lot tougher and harder then a normal bird. I worked in the AR&O part of rolls-royce for a while and every other engine that came in for a service had bits of dead bird in it. A bird wont even touch a RR engine.

[bonehead1603]

@carlstss "A BIRD WONT EVEN TOUCH A RR ENGINE" IF WHAT YOU SAY IS TRUE THEN TELL ME . WHY DID THE PLANE THAT LANDED IN THE HUDSON RIVER WHEN DOWN WHEN A GOOSE ENTER THE ENGINE .

[carlstss]

@bonehead1603 Right, ok. It was a flock of Geese not just one goose and they entered both engines this is completely unaviodable. Like i said A BIRD (that is just one bird on its own) would not cause much damage if any. But a Flock of Geese not a goose (which is one) could cause damage,

[MidnightMarrow]

@bonehead1603 THINK YOU COULD UNDO YOUR CAPS LOCK BUTTON IT IS UNSIGHTLY, BONEHEAD.

[atav]

@bonehead1603 Easy.... it wasn't a RR engine... idiot.

[bonehead1603]

@atav who care if it wasn,t a RR engine or a suzuki , yamah , harley davidson ,etc etc all we know that it was an engine and they test their engine by throwing chicken goose geese etc etc in them . an i know these plane don,t use RR engine in them except for concord and roll royce cars ok now leave me the fu--- alone dam it .

[Mole16man]

@bonehead1603 This is Rolls Royce, the world forerunner in engine production and manufacture, I am perfectly sure that they, of all people, will be able to do bird strike testing on engines properly.

[igorbporto]

Yeah, it blends.

[berndpfe]

This is our super express RR-T900 bird slicer. Cost only 1 million USD$..

[hutch356]

OMNOMNOMNOM!!!!

[mattosoffice]

21 don't look fine..... :D

[dacorsua]
