According to Snopes:
These photographs depict the aftermath of a mid-air collision between two small planes, a Beech 95-B55 and a Cessna 180K , over Tehachapi, California, on 16 January 2004. The Cessna was destroyed and its pilot killed, but the pilot of the Beech Baron amazingly suffered only minor injuries and was able to land his aircraft safely on a dirt airstrip. According to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) preliminary report on the accident:
On January 16, 2004, about 1415 Pacific standard time, a Cessna 180K, N61691, and a Beech 95-B55, N555RD, collided about 6.5 nautical miles west of Tehachapi, California. The Cessna was destroyed, and its airline transport certificated pilot was fatally injured. The Beech was substantially damaged, and its private pilot received minor injuries.
The Beech pilot reported to the Safety Board investigator that, at the time of the collision, he was in a cruise climb. His altitude was over 5,500 feet mean sea level (msl) but less than 6,500 feet msl. Less than a second prior to the collision he observed the right landing gear of an approaching airplane in his 1 o'clock position. He then ducked in a reflex-like manner and the collision occurred. The Beech pilot observed a dirt airstrip near his location, and he made a precautionary landing.

Got them thanks. Is it normal for a goose to fly at 11,000 ft. I really did not think they would be that high. I guess if your getting shot at you just keep creaping up. LOL

Sorry all.. I should have stated it more clearly.. Because they are high definition and the list has limits I thought it would be easier to send me a private and I would gladly forward it.. Why I included my "E" in the 1st post to facilitate.
I will harvest those that replied so far and send them to you.

Hi Ryan..
Separate strike. Occurred at 11 thou. Pilot injured but landed safely. Plane appears totaled. As you know inches make a world of difference and never more apparent than in aviation accidents.

Del,
If the images are what I'm thinking they are, that "goose" was actually a Cessna 180. The people in the 180 were killed. I can pull up the NTSB report shortly.
