Pictorial: American airline plane catches fire midair after bird strike



It was a scary moment for passengers when an American airline Boeing 737’s engine burst into flames midair before the pilot safely executed an emergency landing at Ohio airport, as the aircraft was struck by a flock of geese.

The incident was reported to have taken place 40 minutes after the plane took off on Sunday.

According to Mail Online, passengers Marni Kallestad and Ryan Brink recorded the incident as flames shot from the engine.

The American Airlines flight 1958 to Phoenix, Arizona took off from John Glenn Columbus International Airport at 7:43am, according to FlightAware, a website that tracks flights nationally, but landed back at the airport at 8:22am.


Witnesses on the scene said it was struck by a flock of geese as it took off, causing flames to shoot from the engine and create ‘wonky, pulsing noises.’

John Glenn International Airport posted on Twitter, “Emergency crews responded to an aircraft incident at CMH this morning involving a reported engine fire.”

Correction to our earlier tweet: the aircraft experienced mechanical issues, not an engine fire. Thank you to our emergency crews for their quick response,” it posted.

Woman With ‘Two Vaginas’ Says She Uses One For Work And One For Personal Sex

Image
Bringing a whole new meaning to not mixing work with pleasure, this OnlyFans star has shared what it is like to have two vaginas where she uses one professionally and the other for personal sex. Adult content creator Evelyn Miller didn't find out until the age of 20 that she'd been born with two vaginas and two wombs. The 31-year-old from Queensland, Australia, began working in the sex industry after a relationship breakdown and made sure she kept one vagina for use in her work, and one for her personal life - which seems rather efficient. She explained: "I worked as an independent escort for about seven years travelling around the world. "I was able to use one vagina for work and one vagina for my personal life, which made the work a lot easier emotionally and physically for me." After stopping doing that, she moved over to OnlyFans and began creating adult content which earns her $75,000 USD (£54,829) per month. Evelyn puts her success down to having two vagin...

Couple Caught Very Clearly Having Sex on Board Airplane

Image
We never thought we’d need to say this, but here we go: There’s a big difference between getting married on board an airplane and having sexual intercourse on board an airplane. The former arrangement can be pretty romantic, despite its unusual setting, as evidenced by the video below, on a Southwest flight this week.  The latter, though? It’s just weird and gross and dirty, despite being sort of admirable in its own way. We say this because a man and a woman were recently videotaped while very clearly getting it on while flying about 35,000 feet over the ground. This isn’t the first time a couple has joined what society has deemed The Mile High Club, but it’s gotta be one of the first times they have dared to do so without going into the bathroom first. Seriously! These two just starting humping on their seats! “My mom and dad were just trying to have a peaceful trip to Mexico and then they sent me this……..” Twitter user @kileytully wrote alongside the borderline NSFW footage, wh...
