high level bird strike
clobbered a creature at FL80 near munich in the dark and imc the other night. Splat under neath the radome. Silly question but humour me, what would be flying around in the dark, in clouds at night at 8000ft? Was the bird lost or do birds fly around at these levels in the dark.All we know its feathers were black....authorities took a blood swap to see if it could deduce what type of bird it was.....
I heard a 74 was clobbered by migrating geese in the mid 20s.......
No damage was done but the thud certainly concentrated the minds....look fwd to replys. Thx
