Scratch what I said about a brake inspection not necessary, after some more consideration it turn out that an inspection may have been justified.

However after more research they have made a mistake declaring a mayday, the loss of 1 engine is only a pan pan call, look it up if you think im wrong.

757 sure never flown that or any thing other than MEP.

Also they claim they saw the bird coming so y was no action taken to try and avoid the bird, we birds see a plane they tend to dive, so increasing the ROC would have solved the problem. Anyway perhaps the reaction of the PF was not quick enough, i guess we will never know.

Bit disappointed at the negative remarks towards my good self being a fellow pilot, certainly don't get this at my aero club
