## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

AIRCRAFT STRUCK 2 OR 3 DUCKS ON CLIMB OUT FROM MSP.  CREW DID NOT DECLARE AN EMERGENCY.  FLIGHT RETURNED TO MSP WITHOUT ANY FURTHER INCIDENT. NUMBER 2 ENGINE WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED. LEAK AND OPS CHECKS NORMAL.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
