"Honey, I will be bringing dinner home. What? We're having goose."
Seriously, it's impressive (and damned lucky) that the pilot wasn't injured or knocked out.

That bird needs to learn from ^this bird. But not from [url=http://i.imgur.com/Dazqvmu.gif]this butterfly[/url] (at least I think it's a butterfly).

My professor just told us a similar story. He was a Phantom pilot in the Vietnam war. He was supposed to take the lead seat in his plane during a routine flight, but a newer guy was scheduled to take his first lead and the powers that be selected my professor's plane to send him out in. So Tom sat in the back seat as they went out. He said about 15mins before returning home, he realized he didn't set something in the controls needed for the landing. So he leaned forward and down to get a good look at the instrument panel to make the corrections. He said he has no idea exactly what they hit because he was leaning down, but all he remembers is the glass in the cockpit exploding, and he had the wherewithal to eject from the plane. The new guy was killed instantly he assumes because he made no attempt to eject. They found my professor on the side of a cliff the next day covered in blood and several feathers still stuck in his flight suit. Dude has some gnarly scars as a reminder. So lucky.

So that's why I didn't get my message from Dumbledore.........

Is the bird ok?

That pilot can [i]fly.[/i]

This is why Canadians shouldn't be allowed to fly. (C'mon, it had to be a Canada goose) In his interview the pilot is wearing an Angry Birds t-shirt.....
-
That shouldn't happen. Those windshields are designed to withstand even larger birds. That aside, the force of the wind at that speed would make flying an , now, open cockpit like that suck,
-
Poor bird.
-
Bird strikes are a serious deal. We have a body of water at the small airport that our dropzone runs out of. I've seen the pilots do plenty of go-arounds to avoid hitting them and potentially ground the plane.
-
Maybe the birds have had enough of us pesky humans invading their airspace, they're now launching attack. This is just a suicide goose, you know like a grunt.
-
He landed with no glasses on. That's intense.
-
So, what was the last thing that went through that bird's mind? His ass. And, this is the reason that there is a chicken cannon.
-
That was an impressive landing.
-
Holy shit. Badass pilot.
-
I'm outraged at that bird's behaviour
-
now im hungry
-
Rio 3 called, it wants it's blue bird back.
-
Bird Suicide?

Did a purple teddy bear fall into a pool missing an eye? Just wondering. [spoiler]if you don't get it its a breaking bad reference [/spoiler]

He landed that plane without his glasses like a boss.
