As requested by many, ATC & our intercoms have been included. I also try

For my last workday flying this week, I 've lown the flight from Rotterdam to Faro and back to Eindhoven airport. I would like to invite you into the cockpit of our Boeing 737800 airliner. Enjoy the views from the approach in Faro, while decending into the beautiful suroundings of Faro Portugal, the landing and taxi in are also included.

As for the possible bird strike. It looked like we had hit a bird, on our left hand side near engine number 1, but luckly the bird manage to dodge us and survive the whole incident! What helped, was that I had already closed the throttles during the flare, so the engines didn't ingested him. The local airport services did a runway inspection and captured the little seagul. He was alive and as far as I could see not injured. He probaly was pushed down by the wake turbulence of our 737. Our aircraft was also not damaged. This made our day and his day! Check out the end of the video to see the bird.

Enjoy all the ATC, our chatter and our (almoste) bird strike. Check the end to see the result of the catched bird!
