Hi, Rainbow and Flintstone. If I remember correctly, a B727 had a head opn with an eagle [feathered variety] in that area a good few years ago. The bird smashed through the nose cone, and penetrated the flight deck with enough force to break one of the co- pilots legs!!!!! Sounds far fetched??? No. Absoulutely true, remember seeing the photos of the dead bird ON the flight deck. Nasty.
