Well that’s a first. Struck a bird during takeoff and back on the ground.

Pretty sure it was before lift. I thought it was wind but may have been the strike.

We stopped climbing and that seemed odd but never flew from here before so thought maybe it was SOP. - spamlet Jul 26, 16:30 7
- And now back to terminal. The engine didn’t seem on fire so hopefully that’s a good sign. -- nm - spamlet Jul 26, 16:38 6
  - And we’re deplaning for reals. -- (edited) - spamlet Jul 26, 16:47 1
    - You don't really wanna go to Florida anyway. -- nm - Qale Jul 26, 17:19

    - There’s a group of three kids flying unaccompanied in the row across. The oldest kid is maybe 10 and trying to keep it together. -- nm - spamlet Jul 26, 16:48 2
      - Eesh. -- nm - znufrii Jul 26, 16:51 1
        
        They’ve taken them off the plane but we’re still on (for now) -- nm - spamlet Jul 26, 16:57
