Default Birdstrike

Last week a B757 of Thomsonfly had a birdstrike at Manchester.This is a video of the incident plus the actual conversations between the crew and ATC.Very professionally handled by all but what is the obvious inconsistency???

I don't think the bird was very professional.

You have obviously not watched all of it as it is almost 10 minutes long!

Obviously I have watched it all. Professional people, unprofessional bird. I doubt he has the guts to do that again though.
