Someone not familiar with the front windshield of cars might think they go straight through. Don't think airplanes have any less strong windshields than cars.

A deep-frozen bird hitting the windshield straight on might be a problem but a live bird hitting at less than 45 degrees is not a problem for the plane or the pilots. The bird becomes red mist.
- aeonik 2y agoDepends on the size of the bird. They can definitely go through plane windshields. https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-f40a81ebb9201ba52c7e3a5ea6fa172f-lq https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-f40a81ebb9201ba52c7e3...
- kelnos 2y agoI don't think you can directly compare the windshields on a plane like that with a 737NG.
