At 3:27:11, during climbout, the plane struck a flock of Canada geese at an altitude of 2,818 feet (859 m) about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) north-northwest of LaGuardia. The pilots' view was filled with the large birds;[24][25] passengers and crew heard very loud bangs and saw flames from the engines, followed by silence and an odor of fuel.[26][27][28]
