.......Confess that I haven't read more than a couple of the initial comments, but that photo of the aircraft in flight stuck a note. Noticed a large bird in the background. I know nothing of any modern Airbus types, but until about thirty years ago I did fly various of other types in and out of Karachi, and well recall these giant ****e-Hawks. Can't claim to have witnessed them in flocks, but would not a freak simultaneous ingestion of ****e-Hawk cause violent engine surges and or flame? Once experienced a brief disturbing surge after low level bird strike on single-engine jet, and once heard a Harrier pilot mention another person's Harrier flame out after ingestion of Seagulls....

Reason: 'Other Types'
