Passenger films bird flying directly into plane's engine
A passenger on a plane preparing to take off from a German airport filmed the moment a bird flew into the aircraft's engine. The video, filmed aboard a Boeing 757 preparing to depart from Frankfort Airport, shows a bird fly directly into the engine, causing it to make an unusual noise. (www.facebook.com) Más...

Thanks for the video URL Chris..I went full page and did pause play when at the slow mo part of the video..strangest looking bird I've ever seen..looked more like a groundhog getting sucked into the engine.
The original link was live when first posted. I only saw it in two blurred frames. Woodchuck or unlucky duck, it definitely ended up ground.
Kinda think after the jet airplane ground schools I have attended that pointed out the danger to life zones associated with ground ops., the offended party that went through the engine didn't "fly" into it and was unaware it had entered the "danger, jet blast zone" when it went out the other end. It's a big Hoover vac. Lots of things go through them that nobody sees. Just sayin.
It may help if the link you post was viewable..all I got, even after 3 attempts was "Sorry, this content isn't available right now The link you followed may have expired, or the page may only be visible to an audience you're not in."
Guess I'm not in that audience.

All I got was a prompt to log on to Facebook. No thanks.
