Aircraft is PH-HZE. Birdstrikes occurred on Tuesday the 11th on the Antalya-Eindhoven flight, with three noticeable impact points on the left wing (leading edge inboard of the engine, top of the engine intake, and leading edge slat outboard of the engine).
Repairs should be complete by Sunday, and the aircraft will then head up to AMS.
