I have a hunch that it would be too difficult to add into the game.

However, I know what it is like to have the flight instructor bank the plane into a 45d turn without warning to avoid a flock of friggin geese, too.  I kissed my door window when he did that.

What you can't see in the pic is that there are feathers coming out the other end of the turbines.

It's surprising just how many times the bird will win. It's usually a suicide mission though.

Yup, todays engines will take most birds and make them mince meat.

heck, might even feed a small population of people when the meat hits landfall.

-imagines starving kid with hands open and a chicken leg falling down.-

LOL... Reminds me of the USA in WWII.... We tried to attach incendiaries to bats and release them over Japan.

The thinking was pretty smart even though the bats couldnt carry the explosive.  Bats would hide during the day and with Japanese architecture, they would actually go under the roofs, then the flare up of fire would burn the houses down.

This idea never worked sadly.
