... sounds like pilot issue to me ;)

I've enjoyed flying it for the 40+ hours I have in it. But it's also an upgrade from the Navaslow. So I suppose its relative, but certainly I would enjoy flying the MU-2 more. It seems to be a bird magnet. Same company, same plane, same DAY, different location, and someone else hit a sizable bird. Fortunate for him, less dramatic then the OPs incident.
 
My record before I got hired at amf was a birdstrike every 100 hours, most from flying jumpers.
