Plane crash averted as bird strikes on Lagos-bound Air Peace flight from Owerri

Full statement from the airline.

 

This is to inform the general public that Air Peace flight P47159 Owerri to Lagos, on 22 November, 2021, just few minutes after take-off, had a bird strike.
This seriously affected the parameters of one of the engines and the Pilot-in-Command had to divert to Port-Harcourt and safely landed the aircraft while the passengers disembarked normally.
We have dispatched a rescue team and aircraft to airlift the passengers of the affected flight. Air Peace is committed to the highest standards of safety and will never compromise on this.
