The preliminary accident report on the Jeju Air crash in South Korea has revealed that traces of bird strikes were found in the plane's engines. The report, released by South Korea's Aviation and Railway Accident Investigation Board, indicated the presence of feathers and bird blood stains in both engines. Further analysis identified the bird species as Baikal teals, a type of migratory duck.
Additionally, the report highlighted that the plane's black boxes, including the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder, stopped recording approximately 4 minutes before the crash, posing a challenge in determining the exact cause of the accident.
