Plane strikes Goose

More from FlightGlobal, about a Frontier Airlines jet had hit a flock of geese. The safety board's investigation found that the Airbus A319 had hit 6 or 7 geese, damaging both engines. The airliner landed without problem, using the left engine as the right engine had shut down. What I like is the rather placid language the safety board uses in saying passengers saw "...fireballs being ejected from the engine". I somewhat imagine looking out the window and seeing huge fireballs being blasted out the back of your plane's engines might inspire rather stronger language.
