VIDEO: terrifying moment bird crashes through cockpit window

This is the terrifying moment a bird “exploded” a plan window, hitting the pilot in the face.

Robert Weber was flying the small aircraft in Florida when the bird crashed right through the cockpit window.

Luckily the pilot wasn’t seriously hurt in the incident, escaping with just a cut face, and he managed to land the plane safely.

“The windscreen just exploded,” he told the Sun Times newspaper.

“Frist thing that came to mind was the first thing I was told when I started flying, and that was ‘just fly the f****** plane’.

“I declared an emergency and I got it down as quickly as I could.”
