Aer Lingus flight EI123 to Chicago just returned to Dublin.
The Airbus A330-300 took off form North runway at 11.12 (local time) but had to do a U-turn for an emergency landing.
The 16 year-old plane (reg. EI-EIK) landed back at Dublin Airport, on South runway, only 15 minutes later.
The plane flew into a flock of pigeons on takeoff causing a bird strike in number 2 engine.
The bird strike caused major vibration from the right engine.

The aircraft was met by fire engines and inspection is in progress to see if the flight can be resumed on this plane.
