Our PGCA Doubles Club has a fairly lenient interpretation that two birds dead in the air at the same qualifies for a double compared to that of the Loyal Order of Dedicated Grouse Hunters. Besides being dead in the air at the same time their definition also includes that the birds have to take off at precisely the same instant. I have a good friend who's a member of that organization that shot a double on Ruffed Grouse this past season, two dead in the air at the same time, but one of the birds took off an instant before the other---his double didn't qualify. I like our definition better.
