Wild Beasts
Quite a while back before I got my PPL I was on short final for a small country airport in a C152 with my instructor at night. At about 50 feet AGL I noticed a pair of eyes on the runway. I froze to some extent, I think I managed to utter someting like, 'ugggg' by the time my instructor calmly said, 'go around' and applied full power.
We hit the deer pretty squarely with the wheels before climbing into the pattern and making an uneventful landing. On landing we inspected the a/c and found no significant damage...just some left over fur. The whole thing made for a few exciting moments though...
