Birdstrike reported at KROC

[onesierrawhiskey]

A birdstrike and emergency landing is being reported at KROC in the past 20 minutes. Checking the archive...

EDIT: AWE1101 struck birds just after 1330 GMT on departure. Anyone can edit the archive down for a clean clip?

EDIT2: Plane landed safely with no incident, short runway closure.

Speedotann has edited a very good clip. See this thread on the ATC/PILOT AUDIO CLIPS board:

Thanks Joe... It was a fun one to do. A lot of dead space and 2 archive files later!
