A flock of seagulls flew into both engines, causing a forced landing. The aircraft was located outside the airport. The CFM56 engines ingested a flock of birds.The left engine immediately seized, while the right engine failed to provide sufficient thrust to maintain flight.

Passengers and crew were evacuated successfully. Shortly after that, the right engine took a second bird strike. There were no reports of serious injuries or death. High engine temperature, low oil pressure, or anything that protects the engine will signal the FADEC.
The airplane encountered a bird strike into both engines while flying through a flock of seagulls. Eight buses transported the passengers back to Zhukovsky Airport.

After initial sensing of the non-normal indication, the FADEC will try to restart the engine three times without human intervention! The aircraft made the landing with the gear retracted. The jet engines on airliners are all designed to withstand a birdstrike, up to a certain severity.

You can hear the surging engine noise come on as the bird strike hits in the video below.The pilots stopped the climb at 750 feet to land the airplane in the cornfield past the runway, gear up. Seemingly, the remaining thrust being produced after the birdstrike was not sufficient for continued flight.The forced landing took place in a cornfield between the middle and outer marker of the ILS landing system for the opposite runway. The right engine was making noise as if attempting to spool up but repeatedly failing to produce the necessary thrust. No fuel leakage occurred. No people remained in the cabin.

Pilot decision making and crew resource management (CRM) appear to have functioned perfectly and “by the book”.The jet engines on airliners are all designed to withstand a birdstrike, up to a certain severity.

The right engine was smoking but there was no fire present. Many factors come to play enabling an engine to continue operating after a birdstrike, from engine design, construction, and engine computer systems. 10 injuries were reported. The FADEC is found on jet engines and piston engines alike.As a matter of fact, this system is so genius designed with automatic safety systems that the FADEC will shut the engine down for odd indications. Substantial airplane damage resulted from the forced landing.The pilots told Russian media the bird strike hit the left engine first, causing it to spool down and seize immediately. Captain Yusupov took the controls when it became evident that an immediate landing was imminent. In the case of Ural Airlines, their A321 was using CFM56 engines equipped with a FADEC computer system (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) system. Credit: YouTube/AVH Bird strikes on airplanes. The landing was performed with the gear up. The pilots shut down both engines just before touchdown. In the case of Ural …
