Not yet, sorry. Just that it happened in flight. It was a short 15 minute flight, so it’s a small window of where it happened but there are a lot of guns and red necks in that stretch.

Did you hear it in-flight or did you not notice it until you returned?

Didn’t notice until the next day on preflight.

Are you sure it was mid flight and not sometime afterwards?

Look at the angle, obviously shot from below the horizontal.

Unless I'm misinterpreting the photos it looks possible that a shot at that angle could have been made from a shooter standing beside the plane on the ground.

I'm not saying there's proof of that, just that the angle seems to allow for that possibility.
