BA birdstrike out of Heathrow

[wclark1238]

My flight (BA1399) from MAN to LHR was cancelled this afternoon due to technical problems on the inbound - later described to me, by a BA flight crew member who was waiting to 'hitchhike' on BA1399, as a birdstrike. The inbound 'incident' aircraft safely landed at MAN but is now grounded pending attention to engine.

I'll try again to get to South Africa starting with tomorrow's BA1399.
