Lovely day today so I decided to get the dust off my ElectraFlight park flyer (was going to take the Trainer but decided electic would be more relaxing.) Well I after about 5 minutes of relaxed flying at the local oval/reserve out of knowhere a bloody Magpie came flying in and started trying to attack my poor defenceless plane, a few seconds of zigzagging shook the bird off but another one came flying in, missed the plane by a inch, in a panic it dived, hit the ground a flipped, wasn't a huge impact but it cracked the wing. Dam bird, I wasn't after its eggs.

Anyone familiar with the South Australian species of Magpie knows these things are real badasses, even cats run from them


Anyone else had a similair incident?
