A Gol Transportes Aereos Boeing 737-800, registration PR-GUF performing flight
G3-1687 from Uberlandia,MG to Sao Paulo Congonhas,SP (Brazil) with 160 passengers and 6 crew, was climbing out of Uberlandia's runway 04 when the crew reported the right hand engine (CFM56) had ingested a bird and suffered severe vibrations. The crew reduced the thrust on the engine which returned the engine to normal parameters, the crew therefore did not shut the engine down. The aircraft stopped the climb at 6000 feet and returned to Uberlandia for a safe landing on runway 04 about 25 minutes after departure.
Brazil's CENIPA reported the aircraft sustained minor damage.
The aircraft is still on the ground in Uberlandia about 49 hours after landing back.
