There had been talk earlier in the thread of the Hawk squawking 7700 at 14000’.

When I read your post I felt you were inferring that a Hawk that had suffered a LL bird strike might have zoomed to such an altitude. If that was not the case then I apologise.

Talk of bird strikes usually conjure up thoughts of LL profiles. Whilst bird strikes are obviously possible higher up they are much more rare.

Of course I have no idea what altitude the jet was at when it suffered an emergency and indeed what caused it.
