What are the bird's opinions on all this?

"So where did you hit the bird?"

"I think on the head."

What kind of plane is this? Looks like a King Air... USCG maybe? Is there a story to go along with the picture???

This description is all I have. Don't know anything else about it as it was simply forwarded to me. In another comment it says that the a/c was based and the flight was out of Corpus Christi, TX.


T-44A 161058 suffered a bird strike to the R/H Horizon Stab during a routine training flight this afternoon. The aircrew initiated an uneventful landing with no other damage noted to the aircraft.
