The plane was returning from a day trip to Las Vegas when the bird strike happened. The pilot described it as a teaching experience. What they're saying "I call 'mayday.' I landed everything smooth. When I started, I cannot hear them. So my partner got all blood… and maybe just scratch in the chin. But after we landed, we just realized that it was a bird, and then it stuck on the ceiling there. So pretty big bird, I believe. Yeah. It's so dangerous at night and we cannot see anything," said co-pilot Gma Goeyardi.
