Narrative:Either during takeoff or on landing, a bird collided with the port wing flap. The bird glanced off the leading edge of the Fowler flap and impacted the trailing edge, puncturing the ceconite skin and fracturing five fibre glass ribs. The bird was not seen due to the high nose altitude during both takeoff and landing, and the impact was not felt due to mild turbulence at the time.
