Do birds fly in IMC?

[paulo]

There must be an ornithologist out there that can answer this one.

Do they fly VFR on top? What happens if they are flying along, and there's low cloud below current altitude? Is CFIT a problem?

There was a long thread about 6 months ago dealing with this very topic...try a search...the server load is too high now to let me try.

Think it was either in JetBlast or Tech Log
