So... good friend and fellow forum member JRob works at an airport and there is an official word for bird guts... it's called Snarge. It's scraped whenever an airplane/bird impact happens.

I just installed a ceramic coated exhaust and my left mid fairing interior had quite a bit of snarge, which took a good amount of time to remove... :sad:

One day back in the 60's, I was returning to WSMR from El Paso, TX, leisurely. Just enjoying the ride, looking at scenery, when I was struck in the mouth with a MOTH. I had to stop on the side of the road and spit out the most foul thing I have ever tasted in my life. I had no water with me. I must have been there for at least 15 minutes.
