A shocking incident unfolded over Gatwick Airport as a TUI Boeing 737 was struck by two massive swans shortly after takeoff, forcing an emergency landing. The swans, hitting at a daunting speed of 185mph, smashed the plane's windscreen, leaving the pilots with no visibility and critical systems damaged. Despite this avian assault on the airliner, the pilots managed an impressive landing. The bird strike left all 192 passengers, and the crew shaken and the aircraft facing repairs that could cost around £1 million. This avian adventure emphasizes the unpredictable dangers in aviation, even from gentle creatures like swans.
