Did they fly through a NOTAM? Are there any missing sky divers between DTW and Tampa?

Apparently not that one, where you been SNSD? It does not look like a bird strike to me though. It may have just been structural failure.

Hey Doggie,

Just taking a break lol.

Definately not a bird strike. No blood or feathers. Saw pics today on airliners. I think something hit it, but what? We will know more as time goes on.

Hi My Darling,

It's in there but the mass topix on topix has it buried.
Thought it was cute though that someone dared you earlier to "expose yourself" LOL.

Is Rudy keeping you guys on your toes? I noticed someone moved in to fill my shoes :-)

It was definately, maybe, something other than a bird that is hard to detect and Pilots don't like to talk about when they see one. How about a UFO!
