dark light

Swarm of bees forces aircraft to turn back.

Never heard of this happening before. Glad they got down safe.

It would have been a B737-200. Not quite sure what the engine type was though, maybe someone else could inform us.

It would be the noisy and beautiful Pratt and Whitney JT8D on the ‘200. 🙂

Any body got the buzz on what the aircraft and engine types were?

Whatever airline it was, how irresponsible! Do they not appreciate that there is a current shortage of bees.;)
