Shaking off the Birds
Jason was trying to shake off the birds, but he had to be careful. If they hit the engines, it could cause the airplane to crash. These birds seemed to be more aggressive as Jason kept maneuvering away from them, and he didn’t know why!

Wouldn’t Leave the Plane Alone
The birds didn’t leave the plane alone, and the passengers were getting rowdy. In fact, they thought the birds would cause them to crash. Jason reassured everyone that he had things under control, but he secretly called for assistance!

Asking for Help
Jason called flight control to determine his options. In fact, he believed that the birds would crash his plane. Plus, there were so many of them, and they seemed to get more aggressive every minute. However, there was a problem.
Asking for Help
No Reply
Jimmy was the co-pilot, and he turned around, reporting bad news. He couldn’t get flight control because they weren’t answering. Jason insisted the man keep trying and asked the cabin crew to keep the passengers calm.
No Reply
No Altitude
Jason tried to push the plane higher to get rid of the birds. However, if he did so too quickly, he’d endanger the passengers. Plus, there were too many birds, and they started pushing the airplane down! Jimmy gasped as he saw buildings around them.
No Altitude
Dangerous in the City
The airplane was hovering dangerously above a city. However, Jason felt he could steer it toward the countryside. He realized he couldn’t gain altitude now, and he needed to get to an airport to land, but how?!
Dangerous in the City
Staying Calm
The cabin crew was trying to keep the passengers calm. Some had stood up from their seats because they were scared. Others were frozen into place. Everyone was worried because they didn’t know what was happening!
Staying Calm
Turn Around
Finally, Jimmy reached the control room, and they said to turn the plane around and go to a nearby landing strip. In fact, they had to go to a smaller airport because it was closer. Jason wasted no time doing this!
Turn Around
Getting Dangerous
Now, things were very dangerous. While turning the airplane, they hit a few birds, which seemed to trigger the others. Now, birds were hitting them fiercely, causing small cracks to appear in the windows of the aircraft.
Getting Dangerous
More Birds Attack
Jason was told that emergency services were heading to the airstrip, and he had to get there. However, when they left the city, there were even more birds waiting in the forest. He feared this would end in disaster!
More Birds Attack
Too Close to the Engines
Jason saw that more birds were attacking the plane and getting closer to their engines. If too many birds flew into it, the results would be very bad. Now, he focused on reaching the landing strip, but he heard a bang.
Too Close to the Engines
Plane Shakes
The plane began shaking, and it was hard to control. In fact, it lost altitude. Likewise, the passengers realized this and started to scream. Overall, the engine burst, and that was the worst thing that could happen to them now!
Plane Shakes
Jason’s Heart
Jason’s heart was now pounding in his chest. However, he was so focused on what he was doing that he didn’t hear the commotion around him. Their plane was falling from the sky, and there was only one thing he could do!
Jason’s Heart
Emergency Landing
Jason now had to make an emergency landing. Though he’d been through simulations in training, he’d never done it in real life. Still, it was his duty to ensure the safety of everyone on board. However, he then noticed something!
Emergency Landing
Water Landing
There was a lake in the distance, and he felt he could make it. However, he barely did, and it wasn’t a soft landing. Still, the airplane didn’t break apart. Now, he was focused on the passengers and crew because he heard screams!
Water Landing
Screaming
The passengers were terrified and screaming. He wrestled himself out of the seat and realized that Jimmy was almost unconscious. After helping him, they went into the body of the plane and saw the distress everyone was dealing with.
Screaming
No One Was Hurt
Once they got into the plane’s belly, they realized that everyone was fine. However, the crew couldn’t open the emergency exits because the birds were still swarming them. What might happen if the doors opened?!
No One Was Hurt
Must Evacuate
They couldn’t stay in the plane and had to evacuate. Jason tried pushing the exit doors, but they were stuck. Now, he became emotional because he was desperate and stressed. Finally, the stewardess got one exit opened.
Must Evacuate
Sinking Slowly
The airplane was slowly sinking, but they had enough time to get everyone out safely. The crew kept everyone calm, but some people were rude and only wanted to get outside. They immediately regretted that decision, though.
Sinking Slowly
Coast Guard Assists
The birds attacked those who got out, but they dived into the water. Jason realized the birds in the cabin were heading to the baggage area. Finally, the coast guard arrived while Jason was getting into the water, and the plane finally sank.
Coast Guard Assists
Everyone’s Out
The coast guard ensured that everyone got out safely from the water. Now, more boats were approaching, making this feat possible. However, the passengers were pointing to the plane wreckage, and Jason gasped when he saw it.
Everyone’s Out
Birds Continue Circling
Those birds were still circling the plane, and it felt like they were looking for something. Jason was very confused as to why birds might react like that. However, it got worse as the coast guard tried getting closer to the wreckage.
Birds Continue Circling
Getting Close
When the coast guard tried getting closer, the birds went on high alert. They didn’t want anyone to get near to the plane. However, the coast guard people were stubborn and sailed closer, even though Jason warned against this.
Getting Close
Getting Attacked
Once they got close to the wreckage, the birds attacked. This scared the coast guard crew so badly that they jumped ship and swam to the other boats. Now, the cabin crew and passengers were completely baffled. What was going on!?
Getting Attacked
Tugboats
The coast guard had to scare the birds away to get near the plane wreck. Finally, they decided to bring in tugboats that were already around. Though the operator was warned, he didn’t seem scared of these birds. Was that a mistake?!
Tugboats
Getting Closer Now
As the tugboat got closer, the birds swarmed again. Those workers saw a darkened sky, and this was clearly a sign for them to wait. Therefore, they called for backup so that someone else could scare away these birds.
Getting Closer Now
Birds Swarm the Workers
Now, the birds were swarming the ships while they were farther away. The crew outside was overrun, but they still managed to get inside. Plus, the tugboats had coverings to protect them. Luckily, Jason thought of a plan!
Birds Swarm the Workers
Make Noise
Jason learned in his education that airports scare the birds away by making noise. Therefore, he told the coast guard this piece of information, and they went to work blasting music from the speakers. Something happened then!
Make Noise
The Birds Flee
The birds reacted to those high-pitched sounds and went back to the forest. However, the coast guard kept making the noises so that the birds didn’t come back. This was their chance to tow the plane from the water!
The Birds Flee
Questions
Finally, the tugboats attached cables to the plane and pulled it from the water. However, the police arrived. Since Jason was responsible for the aircraft, he was asked questions. He said he’d made the flight plenty of times with no issues until today.
Questions
Luggage Issues
Jason said that the birds who entered the plane went to the baggage area. That might be the key to determining what happened. The police asked very detailed questions about the luggage, but only the passengers could say.
Luggage Issues
Passengers Questioned
The passengers were quite shaken, but they answered the police’s questions about what was in the luggage. However, one person didn’t, and he was set aside by the cops so that they could investigate more thoroughly.
Passengers Questioned
Shady Passenger
This person was shady about his reason for the trip. In almost every sentence he uttered, there was a contradiction. Therefore, the police thought he was suspicious, especially when he wouldn’t answer questions about his luggage.
Shady Passenger
Alarm Bells
The police ran a background check on him and realized his passport was fake. Finally, they learned he was a convicted felon who had been released from jail. His documents were government-sealed, but this set off alarm bells.
Alarm Bells
Plane’s Out
Finally, the plane was taken from the water. They called in a special research team to ensure that everything was checked thoroughly. However, before they could enter, they heard noises from inside!
Plane’s Out
Birds Swarm Again
The birds knew the ships had gone away, and that’s what the researchers heard in the distance. They came back to swarm the wreckage! Overall, the cops believed they were heading for the luggage area. Things were starting to come together.
Birds Swarm Again
Entering the Plane
They used noise to scare off the birds and went into the plane. It wasn’t easy because everything was destroyed. In fact, the luggage compartment door was jammed, but they broke it open. Once they did, they heard a strange noise.

Sounds from the Plane
From the luggage department, they heard worrisome sounds. As they got closer to the suitcases, they pinpointed which ones were making the noise. This was the moment of truth, so they opened the luggage and gasped out loud!

Smuggling Exotic Birds
The shady man was smuggling in exotic birds. Therefore, the police called for backup and got the full details of the man. He had already done this before and started it up again once he was released. Jason became emotional!

Eventually, that man got charged with his crime and wasn’t released again. Plus, he got in trouble for endangering the lives of those passengers. The birds were attacking the plane as they heard the ones in the luggage calling for help!
