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.

    there is a drill for having a two engine failure. It involves everyone on the plane putting your head between your legs and kissing thier arse goodbye. :)

    on a multi engine a/c pilots go through forced landings with one engine all the time hence the calmness during the situation, and panic would only obviously worsen the situation
