News Report

FYI: API reported that bird damage to 757 nose was not a bird. It happened at approximately 18,000 ft., to high for a bird. It collided into the nose at the planes radar antenna on the pilots side of center.

Yet nothing was on jets' radar or Tampa radar.

There was no visual by pilot or co-pilot.

The report was on AT&T home page news, then suddenly removed. Have you any info on this?
