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......

dunno why but I just love seeing shots like that and hearing stories like that 
Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.
P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.

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..."
