Drone Hits Plane at Heathrow

BY GEORGE

Metropolitan police investigating.

A drone reportedly struck a British Airways flight on Sunday just before it landed at around 12:50 p.m. local time at Heathrow Airport. If confirmed, the case would be the first incident involving a major commercial airline. Engineers later inspected the plan, found no damage, and cleared it for continued usage. Nobody was hurt on board. Police are still investigating who was operating the drone.
