People are now starting to notice that birds share some of the same airspace
shocking I tell you!
j/k - it's natural to have a heightened awareness after something like this.
Considering how many flights per day there are a bird strike is still a really rare occurrence. One that takes out two engines even rarer. Combine that with a pre-inauguration news lull and it gets a little blown out of proportion.
