Q

En montée à 500 pieds, nous avons percuté un aigle. Celui-ci a heurté le radôme ainsi que l’antenne du radar météo située juste derrière celui-ci. L’aigle a terminé sa course dans les palonniers de l’OPL, le blessant à la jambe.

A

During our climb at 500 ft, we ran into an eagle. It (the latter) collided with the radome and the weather radar antenna located just behind (it). The eagle ended up its course near the rudder pedals, injuring (hurting) the first officer’s leg in the process. (Finally the eagle ended up in the cockpit, near the first officer’s rudder pedals, and consequently the latter received a leg injury)
