low level, 12o kts, 200 ft, above water... bang....
what a noise..1 big seagull splashed on co-pilots window.. blood..guts.. yuk flying back slowly.. after landing..
found 2nd seagull on aft right hand main wheel strut.. guess we broke up a mating party

and our ex safety officer.. shouting ..if you fly below 140 kts.. the birds get out of your way instead of you having to avoid them.. guess he didn't know what flying is all about..

well lets go flying again this week.. dark nights low level and see what we can avoid this time
