I've never seen such sucking-up since I saw a flight
of a half-dozen or so Canada Geese devoured by a C-5B engine!

You shoulda been at KIAG three years ago when a GU-11 got eaten by an
F-117. Two Nighthawks came in. The first one ate a seagull as soon as
he touched ground. The second one landed hard and broke something.
They were both supposed to fly in that weekend's air show, neither of
them did. The broken one spent the weekend in the hanger. The one with
a B1RD in the engine spent the weekend on the taxiway, roped off with
guys standing around it holding M-16s and trying their darndest to
look like Steven Segal.
