Pilots were on there decent to Love Field at 17,000 ft when this happened 
It was defiantly some type of big migratory bird in East Texas, and will keep me busy at work for awhile .

That's scary stuff. I always wonder how they fly around west Texas. There are geese everywhere. They show up on radar.

17,000 feet? I didn't think there was oxygen that high up?
We used to get photo tours at Dallas NAS and got to see what a hawk does to the intake of a F 14.... We were told not to get pictures, but
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.
