Commercial Flight Makes Emergency Landing After Flames Shoot From Engine

Uncategorized

An American Airlines airplane was forced to make an emergency landing in South Carolina after flames shot from one of its engines after the aircraft reportedly struck birds while taking off in Myrtle Beach.

“Mayday, mayday, mayday. We’ve got a engine problem here,” the pilot said shortly after takeoff, according to CNN.

“I saw he took up birds, it looked like, at least in the left side engine,” another pilot who saw the bird strike said on radio.

The Boeing 737 carrying 181 people landed safely.

CNN shared further:

Patrick Gotwalt was a passenger on the flight and recorded a video showing flames coming from the engine as the flight appears to be flying over water.

Lindsey Mackey told CNN she was on the beach, heard several loud popping noises and see the orange flashes coming from the left wing.

As the plane circled and prepared to return to the airport and emergency crews assembled, operations workers found the remains of the birds on the runway.

“We’ve got a lot of bird debris out here. We’re going to grab as many big pieces as we can,” they said on the radio.

Bird remains recovered from airplane strikes, called snarge, are sent to the Smithsonian Institution’s lab in Washington DC, where they are analyzed to determine the species. The data gathered can help understand what animals are being hit and help prevent future strikes.

In 2025 more than 24,000 wildlife strikes were reported in the United States, according to the Federal Aviation Administration’s database.

“American Airlines Flight 1760 returned safely to Myrtle Beach International Airport around 8:40 a.m. local time on Monday, Aug. 10, after the crew reported striking a bird while departing,” the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated.

“The Boeing 737-800 was headed to Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The FAA will investigate,” it added.

More from the New York Post:

American Airlines confirmed that the flight returned to Myrtle Beach shortly after departure due to a maintenance issue.

Early reports show that the flames may have been caused by the birds burning up — but that there was no indication of a fire inside the engine itself.

“The aircraft landed safely and has been taken out of service to be inspected by our maintenance team,” a spokesperson told The Post.

“Our team worked to get customers on their way to Charlotte on a replacement aircraft,” they added.

No injuries were reported, and passengers praised the crew for staying calm as the plane shook in midair.

“It seemed to take off the first 10-15 seconds fine. And then it started to shudder really hard on our side, which was the engine that took a bird strike,” one passenger told WMBF.

“The pilots were nice and calm; they seemed to level off, they went over the ocean, gave us a notice that they were coming back and we came back. I guess we were up about 15 minutes, maybe,” they added.

IN the summer of 2019, I was seated in the wine cellar of a walled Medieval town high above the Dordogne Valley of France, not far from Sarlat-la-Canéda, making phone calls, writing reports. I have given this story in other places and it appears as though you’re about to hear it again. Rob Skiba is a name you that you might be familiar with. Though he had made a name for himself as a Nephilim researcher, more recently Rob had taken a dive into the deep end of the pool via flat earth research. The recorded interviews I conducted between he and Rick Hummer, a fellow flat earth investigator and close friend of his, was published while still occupying that very wine cellar. Read all about it. Chicago Is Not a Mirage.

Word quickly spread. Within a few short weeks, dozens of flat earth researchers began accepting my invite for a private interview, if not a series of interviews. From a 17th-century tower built by King Louis XIV, and with a stunning view of the Alps, I sat down with Robbie Davidson, founder of the Flat Earth International Conferences, conducting multiple sessions. While staying in Dumfries, Scotland, David Weiss agreed to take part in the interviews, as did Bob Knodel of Globebusters. There were others. But when I asked the interviewees to discuss the moments that shaped their lives, among the many PSYOPs, false flag attacks, and hoaxes that were discussed, only these men committed commentary to the false 9/11 narrative.

The resulting recordings ballooned into The Unexpected Cosmology, a book which became a website and was even intended as an anthology. And of course, the following discourse was originally a chapter. It was Walt Disney who stated, “Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.” Those sentiments remain applicable here as well. American Sensationalism: The 9/11 Interviews was always intended to be expanded upon with the inclusion of new researchers. So I’m sorry to say the project became stagnant during the Covid-19 psychodrama. I took a break to tackle other projects. We lost Rob Skiba. Rob offered hours of private conversation regarding his life but we never got around to the big one. 9/11. It was in the cards. Sadly, Bob Knodel died soon afterwards. Voices are being squeezed from an entire generation. Gnosis passes with them.

In the aftermath, the FE community became fractured. People began going their separate ways. Robbie Davidson, among a noted few others who were interviewed for the project, got up and left the movement altogether. It is not my intent to erase his or the contributions of others if only brief. They came, they went, their testimonies remain.

The original vision may have hit roadblocks but it is not forgotten. I expanded this paper a few years later to include testimony from author Pauly Hart, a dear friend of mine. I had wanted to continue that trend every year thereafter but you know how it goes. For the 25th anniversary of the attack I have redirected my efforts to its first large scale expansion, including Andrew Hoy and Darrin Geisinger into the mix. Perhaps others will lend their experiences to the recorder in time.

The following is their report.
