A bird seriously damaged the plane
Bowles flew home to the United Kingdom aboard a British Airways flight. The plane was on its way to England when a bird flew in the nose. The plane was able land safely. However, people are shocked at the photos of the damage.
One photo of the plane shows a bloody nose and a smashed-in nose. The photo was commented by many people who were surprised that one bird could do so much damage.
One Twitter user explained, “The nose is a reinforced polymer dome, that houses the radar system. The plastic is simply pushed in. Had it been aluminum, the structural spars would have bounced the bird with very little to no damage.”
