ThomsonFly 757 bird strike & flames captured on video - 576 sec 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. Auteur : headintheclouds46 Tags:ThomsonFly757EmergencyBirdStrikeManchesterAirportG-BYAWThomson263H
