    You know when geese fly in a V one side of the V is always longer than the other. Do you know why that is?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />That side has more Geese on it.

    Maybe that's what put the guys in USAIR down the slippery slope into the Hudson.

    I'm guessing the longer leg of the V would be on the leeward side.

    You are correct....

    I thought it was because the short side had less geese on it. Now I know.

    I believe that I have read that the lead bird creates a shock wave ( terminolgy ) that the following birds ride on, to make flying easier. Other birds take their turn flying lead.<br />Long leg / short leg probably is a result of wind affecting shock wave.

    Geese can't count. If they mate for life and always fly with their mates, they can't have an even 'V'.
