Air France A320 - bird strike at ATH
Air France A320 F-GKXA just returned to ATH after number 1 engine came into contact with a seagul on climb, just after rotation. Large vibrations but a fairly normal climb out except it was straight into a significant mass of cumulus resulting in severe turbulence. Worrying enough for some, but on pretty much one engine it was also thought provoking for those that understood what was going on.
Quick return to ATH (just 15 mins) and all off.
I have to say that the communication by AF staff was superb.
