An American Airlines plane bound for LaGuardia Airport landed safely this morning after flying thorugh a flock of birds near the runway, the first recorded bird strike since some Canadian geese downed Sully Sullenberger’s plane. Although an unidentified bird damaged part of the landing gear, the strike was not apparent to the 135 passengers on board. Meanwhile, the extermination of 2,000 geese continues around the city. |WCBS|
