Air Force Two, the plane assigned to Vice President Joe Biden, was involved in a bird strike while landing in Santa Barbara on Thursday evening.
According to an Air Force spokesman, the modified Boeing 757 plane hit the bird just as it was approaching the airport and landed without incident.
The plane landed safely as a
precautionary measure and is currently being inspected to assess if
there is any damage, said Lieutenant Gregg Johnson, a public affairs
officer for the Air Force.
Lt. Johnson said the bird strike was not flagged as an emergency and
that all passengers, including the vice president, were safe.
