Must of been one hell of a drone to cause all that damage. Certainly not something you would see folks here flying. I ain't buying it.

I agree , it rediculous to say that a drone could do that to a massive plane like that.

Please check out my post as I need a bit of advice!

It is not hard at all to do that much damage to the nose of a commercial jet, which is typically made of composite material (the weather radar antenna is located there). A quad such as a Phantom could easily cause that much damage. Birds have been known to do as much damage: http://mashable.com/2015/05/07/turkish-airlines-plane-bird/#kath6sEJviqx
