Pássaros que se alimentavam da grama próxima à pista de pouso subiram num enxame envolvendo um avião E-6B da Marinha dos Estados Unidos, que se preparava para o pouso.
O piloto conseguiu pousar o avião de US$ 140 milhões em segurança – antes, quando pássaros eram engolidos pelas turbinas, causavam falha nelas.
O local é próximo à pista de pouso do Aeroporto Regional Fort Smith, em Fort Smith, Arkansas, EUA, e por uma razão desconhecida alçaram voo exatamente no momento da descida final.
As imagens impressionantes foram captadas pela fotógrafa Kaia Larsen, quando passava pelo local.
Birds that were feeding on grass near the runway swarmed upwards as a U.S. Navy E-6B plane approached to land. The pilot was able to land the US$ 140 million plane safely – in the past, when birds are caught in the engine of a plane, it has caused engine failure.
The birds were feeding on grass next to the runway at the Fort Smith Regional Airport in Fort Smith, Arkansas, US, and for an unknown reason took off just as the plane made its final descent.
The dramatic images were captured by photographer Kaia Larsen as she drove past the airport.
