Hey guys,
http://www.canberratimes.com.au/travel/travel-essentials/travel-news/is-it-a-bird-is-it-a-plane-20140611-39wfx.html
Link to a story regarding the confusion over a bird strike involving a Thai airline called Nok Air. Apparently 'nok' is Thai for bird and social media went into melt down thinking a Nok Air aircraft was in a mid air collision with a Thai Air Asia aircraft.
Rather funny in the end but maybe a hint to the dangers of social media reporting.
Cheers

As an aside, I can see it being described as ghastly but I rather like that Nok livery!
