THY Aircraft lands safely after a possible bird-strike
Various agencies report that a Turkish Airlines A321, took off from IST(LTBA) to Copenhagen returned back to base due to a malfunction on engine #1 this morning. No information on whether there was a fire or not. Intensive southern wind is active for a couple of days which force the planes to take off on either RWY 18 (L or R) or RWY 24 that head straight to Sea of Marmara where there are huge communities of seagulls. No injuries exist.
