      I'm wondering if it bombed some poor unsuspecting passerby (animal or human) when it hit the ground. That would be a doubly unlucky day...

    More than anything this pilot sounded annoyed that he had to turn back. He was like "I just want to get this flying over with and go home, I don't got time for this"

      No pilot of a commercial airliner is happy that they have to return rather than complete the scheduled flight.
      It's a mess for their schedule, for the airline and for the passengers.
      NOBODY is happy...
      And the bird is likely splattered, so it didn't have a good day either.

    PDX has the distinction of being the only airport that I've ever had a bird strike at. I was on final for 28R in a Cessna 172, and we heard a wierd bang. it was right after sunset! After we landed and taxied in to Flightcraft, while tying down I noticed an inspection panel on the right wing with feathers, skin, bone, and blood stuck in it 😢 I called the tower cab on the landline in the FBO and let them know.

    looks like the plane sat in PDX for about a day and a half, then on May 5 it did a PDX-SEA rev flight and continued doing flights on SEA-SNA for a few days. In other words, it was only out of service for a day.

You couldn't do an episode like that now because it would "offend sensitive people". If you want a real world example of stuff going sideways (on film) search for the time when the Oregon department tried to dispose of a dead beached whale with copious amounts of dynamite. It's just about as good.

      Yea not much of a mark but to me it looks like the nose cone separated a bit from the body of the aircraft. That dark colored line right under the blood smear looks like a gap... They can't be flying around like that now can they right? lol.
