Bird strike leaves hole in plane while landing

 The picture may look like a live-action version of a scene from a cartoon, but it really happened.

 An Air Namibia passenger flight collided with a bird causing significant damage to the aircraft while landing at Hosea Kutaka International Airport.

 The A319-100 aircraft, carrying 112 passengers, landed safely, reported Namibian.com

 The airline spokesperson reportedly apologized to passengers as some of the departure times had to be revised following the incident.

 Meanwhile, a passenger tweeted pictures showing  a hole across the aircraft’s underbody panels.
