A BRITISH AIRWAYS flight was grounded at the Grantley Adams International following a bird strike yesterday.
District manager for Barbados Nigel Blackett said about 100 passengers were affected after they took a decision to cancel the London-bound flight as a precaution.
Blackett said an engineer was flown in from England with a special part in case a replacement was necessary. Tests were carried out today on the flight and it is scheduled to leave at 10 tonight if the all-clear is given.
