A drone has ripped a series of holes in the nose of a passenger plane as it came in to land\u00a0in Mozambique.<\/p>\n
Crew members heard a loud bang, but thought the aircraft had collided with a bird.<\/p>\n
It was only during an examination that the extent of the damage was revealed, and pictures reveal the side of the plane was battered by the drone.<\/p>\n
Reports in Mozambique state that the mystery object was a drone, although an update by airline LAM Mozambique Airlines describes it simply as an ‘external body’.<\/p>\n
