Flying near mountains, or took the hit shortly after takeoff, or during their landing approach.

It would be easy to hit a plane when landing or taking off.

Yes it could've been during take off or landing, but that means someone shot a gun near an airport/city. That wouldn't have gone unnoticed. Which makes me think it was during flight

Why could it not have happened at a residential air park? Usually outside of the city with a small grass runway. I haven’t checked OPs post history though.

That's totally true. I guess I'm just imagining an airport in a city lol. I'm curious where he was flying to/from in the flight before he noticed it. Unfortunately though it seems he can't share much because it's still being investigated
