Hmmm... Jet moving in excess of 400 mph, bird flying along at 10-15 mph...
Thats like saying a person crossing a street and getting hit by a car actually "hit the car"....
Must have done some damage, though, if the flight crew felt it was not safe to bring the Mayor back to NY...

Final Approach
That's what I was wondering. I've had my share of bird strikes, took out a squadron of Mallards in Salt Lake early one morning on approach, hit a few seagulls and a bunch of non descript birds. I had a goose that went completely into the radome. Never had one damage the plane bad enough not to continue the trip.
