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.

Those engines put out roughly 50,000 hp, and rarely use more than 60% of it except in cases like this. I was one of the service line techs during engine seize at MSP. Multi bird strikes took down the twin of my son's Awac's in Alaska early 90's. A 707 version.You'd think they would pass through easier, but a tweaked blade anywhere within and it's done. Front fan blades are pretty tough and $26,000 a blade. They are removed and rapped in blankets and strapped in the seats.

I must have watched this video about 15 times. Great example of safety, procedure, and pure professionals...
