Killed a owl

Postby helomech » 08:46 pm Nov 15 2010

Luckily I was not sitting in that seat, that is where I usually sit, but the pilot was by himself on this flight. Getting hit in the chest with a owl at about 120 mph would suck.

Glad you weren't in that seat also. Bird strikes can be bad news for a helicopter. We get one about every three months or so. But it's on a 737.
