This incident was video recorded by Simon Lowe. 233 people where on board this jet bound for Lanzarote. The number 2 engine sucks in one bird (a crow or corvid) as the plane rotates off the runway.T.V. news reports of two herons being sucked in are wrong.Congratulations to the crew and air-traffic controllers for the calm and professional way they dealt with the situation.

they can. airport i work at, if birds get too close to runway, out comes the gun, loaded with blanks to scare them away

Never knew a low-flying bird can cause that much trouble!

Very calm and professional pilots. If I was flying the plane and found out we lost an engine, I would shit myself.

maybe the remedy for bird strike is to have air ported from above on take off then only from front at good altitude?

That is an amazing video. Well done to crew and ATC.
