Watch: This A320 Struggled to climb just after a bird strike
✈️If an aircraft suffers a bird strike during the takeoff roll after V1, the crew is committed to fly. At that speed, rejecting the takeoff can be more dangerous than continuing. If the strike causes an engine failure, the aircraft is designed and certified to safely continue the takeoff, climb away on the remaining engine, and return for landing using established one-engine-inoperative procedures.

The farthest, fastest. Ever.

The G800 just completed the farthest, fastest flight in business aviation history when it flew from Melbourne to Illinois — a distance of 8,303 nm/15,377 km — in just in 16 hours and 56 minutes at Mach 0.85.

The G800 also recently claimed Gulfstream's 800th-ever speed record, building on a legacy of performance while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for our customers around the world.

I've heard that LOT, the Polish airline, gives its pilots boxes of chocolates for performing go-arounds as a way of encouraging safety.
Meanwhile, at Wellington Airport yesterday, this Air New Zealand Airbus A321-271NX (ZK-NND), operating flight NZ272 from Brisbane, ended up diverting to Christchurch due to strong winds.
You can always go around.

The Captain missed a huge moment in his life, but even at 35,000 feet, the news still got to him.

These guys sometimes miss out on life's biggest moments while flying.

WATCH: A Lufthansa Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner (D-ABPQ) sustained substantial damage after its nose landing gear collapsed while parked at the gate at Frankfurt Airport.

The incident led to the cancellation of today's LH450 to LAX service as airport and airline teams assess the extent of the damage. Video from the scene shows the aircraft resting on its nose after the front landing gear unexpectedly gave way while stationary.

No injuries have been reported, but a technical investigation into the cause of the collapse has been opened.

@AJENews Eh, No single Ugandan has died due to Ebola and yes, one Congolese died in uganda and that’s it.

Uganda has experience in dealing Ebola and has always helped other countries when Ebola breaks out.
