Incident
On September 17, 2009, a British Airways Airbus A319-131, powered by two International Aero Engines V2522-A5 engines, encountered a bird strike during climb after takeoff at approximately 5,000 feet. The event led to a stall in the No. 1 (left-hand) engine. The flight crew performed an in-flight engine shutdown and subsequently returned the aircraft to Copenhagen Airport (CPH), Denmark, where it completed an uneventful single-engine landing.
Post-Incident Actions
Following the incident, the affected engine was removed from the aircraft and shipped to the Rolls-Royce East Kilbride engine facility in Scotland for disassembly and examination.
