Foggy Vision

Went out for a ride yesterday. It was off and on, sunny then foggy. Makes for some beautiful pics.

ZOMG! Another bird strike!

Apparently all bird strikes are now newsworthy.

Another aircraft grounded after hitting bird

(CNN) — A bird struck an Arkansas hospital’s helicopter Saturday, tearing a hole into the aircraft’s nose and prompting the pilot to land early, according to officials and pictures taken after the landing.

The pilot made a safe, normal landing after hitting the bird, and the helicopter will be returning to service after some quick repairs. Nothing to see here folks.

Did they forget the fact that this type of thing happens thousand of times a year? According to CNN’s own reporters

More than 56,000 bird strikes were reported to the FAA from 1998 to 2004

I hope the doesn’t go on too long.
