Bird strikes aren't usually funny,but i do remember while in the Northern Territory (Australia)being at the field one morning and seeing a guy pulling a mangled magpie goose (5lbs or more for you US types)out of his 182's wing and calmly heading over to the tower,carcass in hand,to report it :)

BGMAW,

You have a Comanche? I have a 180 myself. Love the plane.
