| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1330824  United States06/06/2013 08:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to news.nationalgeographic.com] Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37254198 The world's highest flying bird is an Asian goose that can fly up and over the Himalaya in only about eight hours, a new study finds. The bar-headed goose is "very pretty, but I guess it doesn't look like a superathlete," said study co-author Lucy Hawkes, a biologist at Bangor University in the United Kingdom. (See bird pictures.) In 2009, Hawkes and an international team of researchers tagged 25 bar-headed geese in India with GPS transmitters. Shortly thereafter, the birds left on their annual spring migration to Mongolia and surrounding areas to breed. To get there, the geese have to fly over the Himalaya—the world's tallest mountain range and home to the tallest mountain on Earth, Mount Everest, which rises to 29,035 feet (8,850 meters). They didn't get anywhere near that high tho; their max peak height of was 21,120. It wasn't a bird anyway lol; it was an object; you can see the scuffing. If not some kind of small weather balloon I would guess drone. And then I guess UFO if not that. Look at that damage; they are lucky it was not head on; it was just enough off side to deflect. Coulda been the cockpit, could have knocked into the engine or the wing. Crazy nonetheless... |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 39882326  Mexico06/06/2013 09:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think that is what the MSM said, so it is without a doubt true. Just my opinion, so basically it's not worth shit. By the way, all you people saying UFO are insane. Clearly the object was identified. Unidentified Flying Object... lol it wasn't aliens you know, seriously people. aliens? /end sarcasm Noone said the UFO had alien occupants. Moran, UFO is obviously synonymous with alien space craft. Geese, some people. No need to use reverse psychology with the insults.... You aliens are not exclusive owners of ufos.... |

| judahbenhuer User ID: 39815649 United States06/06/2013 09:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We had one hit a Mercury E6-B back when I was active...they were up pretty high and the pilot stated he was sure he had hit a bird. I distinctly remember the nose cone having a gaping hole in it with other "signs" clearly pointing to the 'has beens' of a winged fowl. Apparently it was not the first time it had happened, and the support/repair crew (groundpounders) joked about finally having something to do. Chinese or not...let's be glad those fellow humans made a safe landing and were able to go home to their families. “My religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to be always ready, no matter when it may overtake me. That is the way all men should live, and then all would be equally brave.” -Stonewall Jackson "The Bible that is falling apart usually belongs to a person who is not." - Charles Spurgeon “I apprehend no danger to our country from a foreign foe . . . Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence, I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and become the instruments of their own undoing. Make them intelligent, and they will be vigilant; give them the means of detecting the wrong, and they will apply the remedy.” “If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper; but if we and our posterity neglect its instructions and authority, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us and bury all our glory in profound obscurity.” -Daniel Webster |

It was a craft of some kind. Are those marks a transfer from the other object or the paint being peeled away? *************************************************** the marks are the aircraft paint splittering and pealing off ***************************************************** |

Do birds fly at 26,000 feet? Read the thread. This was discussed in the first few pages.  |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 39882326 Mexico06/06/2013 09:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 1. Was not a rougue bird (which flew 26000+ feet or 8000meters without an oxygen mask, flew around the engines and struck the nose cone) 2. Was not a balloon or instruments (would have had a different impact and been observed/tracked on radar) 3. Was not a drone head-on collision (would have caused an explosion) 4. Was not a meteor (would have gone through the plane) 5. Was not ice (would not have left black contact marks) ... What's that saying that goes something like 'when all logical explanations have been exhausted, the only answer that remains is the illogical'? There is nothing at all over the last 10 pages that could have explained away what is happening to the nose cones of aircraft, and knowing that Chinese aircraft have had ufo sightings close to them - with pics, the only explanation that can be arrived at is a UFO, traveling at the same speed or slower, parallel to the plane, which tried to cross to the opposite side of the nose cone but as it passed, it hit the cone and caused a minor collision,, which resulted in a large dent in the nose cone and scraping of its metallic surface with the plane. |

It was a craft of some kind. I think those marks are from the paint coming off and exposing what's underneath. Towards the upper right of the indentation you can see the paint chipping. Yes, no? It's from the other 'craft' it smeared some of his paint on impact as it slides away. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39292843 I've seen jetliners collide with things before, and I can tell you, they are very strong. I even saw 2 collide with steel buildings, and they cut right through the steel. I saw a video one time of one of those suckers cutting right through the Pentagon. Can't remember the details but you can google.... |
