Narrative:Air India Flight AI614, an Airbus A319, suffered a tail strike upon landing at Mumbai (BOM), India. No injuries were reported.
The pilot was executing a go-around upon landing when she suspected the airplane had struck a bird.
Anonymous sources quoted by the Indian Express newspaper indicate: "While she was trying to take off again, she pulled the flaps up, but the aircraft had no power to take off, and as a result she skidded on the runway."
The plane will be out of service for at least two months.
