Air France A350 Suffers Bird Strike

An Air France Airbus A350-900 performing flight from Osaka to Paris Charles de Gaulle decided to turn around after a weather radar and airspeed indication malfunction. After landing safely at Osaka a post flight inspection showed a massive dent of the nose cone of the aircraft. The cause of the dent is possibly from a bird strike; however the cause is still under investigation. No injuries were reported.
