    Bird Strike!!! lol....

    Well, I was told this can happen, but I didnt believe it.

    I was taking off from KSAN (San Diego International) and at the mid point of the runway was some birds about 100 feet up. I went for it! lolol....


    BANG!!!!!


    And yep, a bloody feathered set of smashes in the plexi in 2D panel mode and HUD mode.


    Very loud! I almost wet myself!

    Had that happen in a Cessna 207 once back in Xplane 8. Had to land with no engines and had some costly virtual repairs afterward.
