If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Wow! I've spent a lot of time around airplanes and I've never seen a bird hit a prop. It's pretty nasty, really.

The others are funny, except for the elephant. I feel sorry for the little guy. Tongue

I wonder if any *puddle jumpers* ever chewed a fish up in its props. I have seen some fish jump more than two feet out of water..

*(float planes)

That cowboy is screwed because his foot looks like it's caught in the reins. I feel sorry for the elephant also.

I had to "wash out" a mouse buzzard from the thrust reverser cascades of a 737-800 last year. Not something I could recommend as a pleasurable task. Imagine if you will, a large scale potato press and said bird Undecided

For those of you feeling sorry for the Elephant ......... It got away. The still is from footage shown on a BBC wildlife programme, the mother realises it's calf is caught in the Croc's mouth and comes back to scare it off.
