Contact photographer Mehdi Nazarinia
What: Qantas Airbus A330-200 en route from Sydney to Melbourne
Where: Sydney
When: Mar 6th 2012
Why: The flight was taking off when the plane suffered a bird strike. Passengers inside the plane heard a “bang” and an engine began vibrating.

Pilots the plane safely in Sydney, where passengers disembarked and waited less than three hours for a replacement plane.

Passengers commended the Qantas crew for handling the situation efficiently.

In George’s Point of View


On a side note, we are also studying the cruise emergency response of the Costa Concordia, the cruise ship that went aground off of an Italian island.

One gets the impression that a Qantas flight crew emergency response is the direct opposite of the chaotic endangerment response of the Costa Concordia (cruise) crew. Not at all the same situation, and yet, in many ways, similar. In both situations, the lives of the passengers are dependent on the efficiency and emergency response of the captain and crew.
