By Simon Hradecky, created Wednesday, Nov 28th 2018 21:06Z, last updated Wednesday, Nov 28th 2018 21:06Z
An Air Canada Airbus A320-200, registration C-FFWI performing flight AC-296 from Vancouver,BC to Winnipeg,MB (Canada) with 107 passengers and 5 crew, was accelerating for takeoff from Vancouver's runway 26L when the crew rejected takeoff at high speed (120 KIAS) due to the failure of the left hand engine (CFM56). The aircraft slowed, the crew declared PAN, emergency services responded. The aircraft came to a stop on the runway, the crew shut the left hand engine down, emergency services reported both left main tyres were deflated. The passengers disembarked onto the runway via stairs and were bussed to the terminal.
On Nov 28th 2018 the Canadian TSB reported maintenance found bird remains in the left hand engine. The bird was identified as a Great Blue Heron. The engine sustained damage to the compressor and was replaced.

This sounds like it was @24left's flight.
i haven’t had time to post but it was very rough, we rolled hard right, possible that engine or wing tip scraped the runway
We hard bounced three times and I also wondered if the gear or tires or other also took a bit of a hit
Felt like wind shear or strong crosswinds just after we crossed over the water inbound to 7R
Quite the sight to watch it all out my window and feel it
(note to those here who are pilots or work at the airport...i am not an expert, just describing my experience)
Also captain came on after and apologized for the rough landing

As @InTheAirGuy noted, this is going to have an interesting ripple effect. I wonder how long this A/C will be out of service.
I don't imagine this is something that can be addressed with a quick coat of paint.

As I was taxiing out of HKG on an onward flight, I could see her outside one of the doors at the HAECO facility. Ladder near the tail and a light focused on the tail undercarriage area.
i heard that it is some serious damage, it may take a week to repair and no it won’t buff out.
