I'm not sure what you're telling me now. A drone in a turbine would be
terrible for sure, I don't think anybody's disputing that. I'm sure a
bird is bad too.
You mentioned "brits testing bird strikes" so I thought you meant the
old anecdote about breaking aircraft windshields by launching frozen
chickens instead of thawed ones. Maybe we're not talking about the same
thing.
Yes Myth Busters fails at scientific rigor, but they get the essence of
science right which is experimentally testing a hypothesis. In most of
their shows --including this one-- they were just testing what was
already known: the frozen chicken story was debunked long before Myth
Busters touched it.

Myth busters, lol, not exactly what I cite for science... That test
was flawed all over the place.. But they didn't test frozen chicken
into turbine blades, which was the situation I was referring to.
Anyways facts show even non-frozen bird is a bad situation for
turbines.. So a metal drone with solid chunks is going to be a much
harder bit to swallow...

You mean with the chicken cannon? Tested on Myth Busters. Frozen
chicken does not have more momentum than a thawed chicken.

You heard the story about brits testing bird strikes?

Exactly....there's the law and there's actual flight ceiling.
Bigger ones can go up several thousand feet.
I was looking at (did not buy) one to carry a 2.5kg payload.
Without the payload it could very very high....like commercial
airplane high. There's no good reason to do that, but you
*could*.

It's not exactly legal to fly them that high (assuming this was
in
the US)...
