It might be cool if we were doing shows every weekend, but being as we only perform once or twice per year, we probably don't want that one shot at a perfect public performance ruined by something like that.
I don't quite see the argument here about simulated bird ingestions.
If you don't want to simulate bird strikes, it can be disabled in the .lua script. Otherwise (depending on how it's implemented) it would appear to simulate the real world environment, and add to the realism by having pilots perform and be current on the procedures for air aborts etc.
I don't see how this would hurt the simulation experience, especially when we're in control of the ON/OFF switch.

My first thought too!

My second thought.

Indeed, but it also made me wonder how much GA used Adobe After Effects for the few moments of bliss we got to enjoy!
