The T-34 is a prop plane. Kerry is suggesting that birds hit the wings. Highly unlikely. The fast moving air around wing surfaces would almost surely cause birds to be pushed over the wing by the shock air forming at the leading edge.

He lied.

I'm Shocked! LOL.

The part about looking out on the wing to see seagulls sticking out of the engine should have been my first clue! Thanks for confirming what I should have known: Kerry is a liar.

They dive.

Everytime that I've flown near a bird, it has folded in its wings and gone into a near-vertical dive (note to self, don't try to fly under one).
