The other day an article appeared in the Provo Herald newspaper.  A
gentlemen in a
Cherokee took off from the Provo airport.  Once airborne, he hit an eagle.
it went
through the windshield, hit the passenger doing major damage, and ended up
in the
cargo compartment.  I've always wondered what would happen if it  had hit
the wing
instead of the windshield.  By the way, the even though the pilot was not
a Couper,
he still managed to land the plane safely.
