I was on this exact plane back in 2006 on a flight from Faro, Portugal to Luton, london. We were Easyjet passengers but the plane was broken so they hired out an air finland 757 (this exact one). Mid flight ove the atlantic ocean the engines failed due to large birdstrikes and we made an emergency landing in Lison, Portugal. We were stuck in Lisbon for over 9 hours! Scariest time of my life on that plane!
