How bad is losing one engine due to a bird strike?
Large bird gets sucked into this planes starboard engine causing a flameout (and loss of engine). It happens right at takeoff, yet does not impact the planes ability to continue climbing. Obviously losing both is a different story, but still interesting to see how losing one affects (or doesn't) the plane.

That bird is D-E-D DEAD. Glad to see the plan can still function with bird gizzards mucking up one of the engines... seems amazing, considering how freaking heavy a passenger plane full of people can be.
