It ends up being dear to hit a 'dear' in the long grass. He would
have been better off to have hit a bird - that way it would have been
'cheep'. Has anyone on the list ever hit any wildlife when
outlanding? I seem to remember a story in ye olde Australian Gliding
years ago about someone colliding with a 'roo when outlanding in the
Warrumbungles (NW NSW for our interstate members).
