N816AW Airbus Flight AAL526 at Phoenix, AZ.
The aircraft was on approach to Phoenix's runway 26 about 1nm before touchdown when a large bird impacted the aircraft. The crew continued for a safe landing on runway 26 and reported the bird strike while turning off the runway. No birds were seen by the crew of the next aircraft in (the pilot telling the Tower controller that the 'guys in front took care of them').
