Nice picture.
Turkeys can indeed fly - and it's a pretty impressive sight and sound. At some family property last year I saw a turkey get 30-40' high crossing a road - and it was noisy!

You're right. When the truth comes out that it's shorter, it's never a good thing.

If I get my S-2B down there after sun-n-fun, I'd be willing to trade some flight time for say a 51 that needs a backseater!!!! :wink: :wink: Just get them darn turkeys out of the way!

Oh, yea!

I hit one with a Mustang as it flew accross the runway, and another with my truck as it flew accross the road and it shattered the windshield.

Almost makes me whish that they couldn't fly!
