Pictures of Aircraft bird strikes

Those windscreen hits would scare the crap out of me. You are just flying along then bam, the windscreen spider-webs and you can't see.
 
From the last page:
Excerpt of Last Transmissions of Addison (TX) Fatal Crash (Photos Above)

Pilot: "Mayday, Mayday, Mayday N166ME we are going down."
Tracon: "Where are you, and what can I do for you?"
Pilot: "Send somebody to pick us up, I think we are going to be fine, but we have struck a bird, we've got to go down. We can't keep it straight with the power on."
The pilot provided basic location and stated he was going to disconnect. The aircraft crashed 1.7 miles west of Areo County Airport, Frisco, TX at 1144C, July 8, 2003. The instructor pilot and student suffered fatal injuries.
