Quoting: News_hungry Photo: [link to cdni-rt.secure2.footprint.net (secure)] More photos and videos on RT. [link to www.rt.com (secure)] "A narrow-body airliner operated by Russia’s Ural Airlines and carrying 226 passengers and seven crew, landed with its wheels up in the countryside near Moscow after suffering a "rare" birdstrike. Bound for Simferopol, Crimea, the Airbus A321 unexpectedly struck “numerous” seagulls or crows shortly after departing from Moscow’s Zhukovsky Airport. Luckily, there was no blaze on board the ill-fated Airbus and no one died in the incident. Still, 74 passengers – including 19 children – received injuries." outstanding pilots  |

Rightly so.
