<<Question:   Has there ever been a bird strike on a Lancair windscreen.   I
guess what went through my mind was if that much damage can happen at 90
KIAS...what would happen at 190 KIAS?>>

I understand an ES windshield failed from a bird strike - and that the
windshields then were thickened to be the same as the IV.  True?  What was
the thickness before and after?
