Well, it finally happened.  While doing a low high speed (200kts) fly-by at Princeton Airport (for a gear check!), a flock of birds came flying out of nowhere and hit my canopy smack in the middle!!!  Scared the  sh__tless!!!

Luckily, no damage at all!!  Lots of bird feathers and blood to clean  up but absolutely no damage to the canopy or the vertical stab (which was also covered with lots of blood stuff...).

PS  real evidence on how strong and sturdy our 320/360 canopies are!!!
