I’ve told the story before, probably even upthread, but I once had a rabbit strike inflight.

The Great Ongoing Aviation Thread (general and other)

I once had an inflight rabbit strike in a C-150. I was in the flare and he was sitting on the runway. Then he jumped up at the wrong moment and was Cuisinarted. That photog almost got Cuisinarted himself. Of he coulda face-planted into a tire / wheelpant. Either would have been instantly fatal. I think the Cessna was doing a brush-off or a show-off of/for the photog and cut it too close. The YouTube vid shows a decent crossing height over the road is 15-30 feet. Such fun.
