This could have been a good gig for Barry Seal (pardon the pun).

Best sitcom episode ever, IMHO.

"Oh my God! They're turkeys! Oh no! Johnny can you get this? Oh, they're crashing to the earth right in front of our eyes! One just went through the windshield of a parked car! This is terrible! Everyone's running around pushing each other. Oh my goodness! Oh, the humanity! People are running about. The turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement!"

As I read the OP the first thought came to mind was WKRP and the turkey dropping episode.

Sounds like a perfectly Alaskan thing to do. Neighbors helping neighbors.
