South Korea’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport has so far declined to comment on whether feathers and blood were found in both engines. This revelation comes after the pilot declared an emergency shortly before the crash. Flight crew had reported a bird strike during the initial approach to land. They subsequently initiated a go-around maneuver to attempt a landing on the opposite end of the runway.Notably, air traffic control had warned the crew of increased bird activity in the area just two minutes prior to the emergency call.</blockquote>
