## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

AIRCRAFT WAS IN LEVEL FLIGHT ENROUTE TO BISMARCK, ND WHEN IT WAS STRUCK BY MIGRATORY WATERFOWL (GEESE).  THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE TO BOTH WINGS AND WINDSCREEN.  THE PILOT WAS ABLE TO LAND AT KBIS SAFELY WITHOUT INCIDENT.  THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND CALM.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
