Details show that an aircraft from Lahore to Karachi took off from the airport in Lahore, but it made a problematic landing a few seconds later.
The aircraft carrying 180 passengers was successfully landed at the Lahore airport by the pilot. They have moved the passengers of the impacted flight to the airport lounge.
Bird strikes on aircraft have been documented occasionally at the nation’s airports, yet the problem persists in spite of the CAA’s assertions.
In the first 11 months of 2022, birds struck at least 57 Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) aircraft.
Details indicate that PIA published a report on aircraft struck by birds in 2022.
53 bird-hit instances were documented between January and October, and four incidents were logged in November, the study states. The airport in Lahore International was the site of most of the incidents.
According to the research, five of the 57 PIA aircraft were damaged in 2022 due to bird collisions, but the aircraft were spared significant damage in 59 instances.
In addition, the birds struck twelve PIA planes during approach, eight during takeoff, and 21 after landing.
