ONE OF THE HAZARDS OF FLYING IN FLORIDA...BUZZARDS!!!!!
This Piper Arrow landed after hitting a turkey vulture in Florida.
There were two Pilots ferrying it someplace when they whacked the bird.
They said it flew fine this way - but a little mushy on the landing.
Took the guys toupee off, too......

Good grief, it looks like it's just come back from a combat mission! I think in the first photo he's thinking "this is going to make a great pub story..." tongue.gif
