The bird put up a good fight, but at the end of the day the title went to the Jet.

If you buy her a dream, she'll follow you anywhere
To any old truck stop that this world might bring
She's a heart held down by this little town
She's looking to find a bird on a wing
Bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She knows in her heart she was destined to fly
Like a bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She's waiting for you to fly by
She makes a small hole in the frost on the window
She's looking out past old familiar things
She lets her mind slip from the small change and napkins
Her heart's looking up for a bird on a wing
Bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She knows in her heart she was destined to fly
Like a bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She's waiting for you to fly by
She stacks up the cups and counts out the few tips
But she's humming a tune that a drifter might sing
She gets to thinking that she's tired of waiting
Maybe she'll be her own bird on a wing
Bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She knows in her heart she was destined to fly
Like a bird on a wing, bird on a wing
She's waiting for you to fly by
She's waiting for you to fly by

Is it that surprising?

If the plane is going fast enough birds will break windows, destroy engines, etc. That said, it's an interesting set of pics.

At NASA AMES in the late '80s, there was a decommisioned piece of old-school tech I wish I could have seen operate. It would tube launch (CO2?) frozen chickens for testing windscreen and fighter canopy designs.
Known (of course) as the "Rooster Booster".

I was in a small propjet that hit a goose. I guess it's fairly common. I mean, one the poor sucker gets sucked into the jet's pull it's bloody well over.

It looks like (I may be completely wrong) it was a Colombian jet, so it could have been a condor. It was big with black feathers - that much we know.
If a jet traveling at 500MPH hits ANYTHING, the results can be Very Bad. Pilots have been killed and seriously injured when the bird they struck came through the windscreen and hit them.
