GROUND EVERY AIRCRAFT IN EUROPE NOW! One of our planes took a bird down an engine last night, knocking off a couple of fan blades in the process.

How long will the authorities continue to allow this madness of commercial flights when birds are flying? Can we not close European airspace?

That one bird caused 100% more damage to an aircraft than I've personally ever seen volcanic ash do!!
