ThomsonFly 757 bird strike & flames captured on video

Back



This incident was video recorded by Simon Lowe. 233 people where on board this jet bound for Lanzarote. The number 2 engine sucks in one bird (a crow or corvid) as the plane rotates off the runway. T.V. news reports of two herons being sucked in are wrong. Congratulations to the crew and air-traffic controllers for the calm and professional way they dealt with the situation. Please checkout more video's by me on Flightlevel350.com.

Did the engine shut down after the bird strike?

All thats missing for that bird are the 11 secret hebs and spices... Faster cooking than a microwave. From Flier to Fryer in .25 seconds.

Ubeans2001, i dont agree. the a350 has different wings with different non-planar wingtips. the tail is also different and the fuselage is much wider. so in my opinion, both of them are equal.
