Near plane strike for the bird ha... I have had close calls with these critters as well... seems it always happens on final lol!
-
WOW! That was pretty close. When I was flyin in east Texas there were always buzzards on the departure end of 35 over a cow pasture. They were always circling so they were easy to "see and avoid".
-
Looks even closer then the eagle that passed near mine! Gets the heart pumping huh.

That was a bit too close. Good thing it didn't hit your plane. That would of been bad.
-
Those close ones always give me the creeps...

before i got my ticket, my instructor and i took out a bird on the right wing in a tomahawk while downwind doing touch and goes. it literally exploded on impact and nudged the plane about 3-5 degrees to the right. the skin on the wing had to be replaced. tense moment for a second, but the plane flew and landed like nothing happened. thanks piper!
to clear my conscience, i bought a bird feeder that weekend :)

A collision is a near miss!

That saying has always messed me up. I couldn't decide if it was a near hit or near miss LOL so I went with near miss.
So... I will now change the title to near hit :-)
