Jason has been a pilot for many years.
Over his career, he faced many unexpected situations that needed quick thinking. However, he became a hero in one particular situation.
A huge flock of birds suddenly hit the plane Jason was flying, banging on the windows and making a lot of noise.

Jason was shocked because the sight was so unusual. He tried to get away from the angry birds, but it wasn’t easy because he knew the passengers’ lives were at risk.
He hoped the birds wouldn’t damage the engine and tried to reassure everyone on board that things would be fine.
But the birds became more aggressive, and Jason didn’t know how to get rid of them.
When he asked for help from flight control, there was no response.

He decided to return to the airport because he couldn’t control the jet, but as the bird attacks got worse, he had to try something he had never done before: landing on water.
Even though it sounded strange, it was the only choice that made sense to him.
No passengers were hurt, even with the rough landing.
When rescuers arrived, tugboats were used to lift the jet out of the sea. All the passengers were safely rescued, but it took a while because the birds kept attacking. The birds didn’t back off despite the rescuers’ efforts to scare them away for some unknown reason.

An investigation finally revealed why the birds attacked the plane. One of the passengers was trying to smuggle exotic birds.
Jason was relieved and cried with joy when he realized everyone was safe. He not only prevented a disaster but also uncovered a criminal operation.
This is another example of the challenges people in aviation face. Jason was praised for his actions and his ability to stay calm and focused to keep every passenger safe.
He was the one who stopped the illegal bird trade that caused the birds’ unusual behavior.
