B6-1401 from New York JFK,NY to Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA), was climbing out of JFK's runway 31L when the crew requested to maintain 12,000 feet and enter a hold to work on a problem. The crew subsequently advised they did have a bird strike on departure, about 3 quarters down the runway, which apparently took a number of probes out, they still had basic instruments but a lot of their automation had been lost. The crew decided to return to JFK and landed safely on runway 31L about 90 minutes after departure.
A replacement Airbus A321-200 registration N903JB reached Fort Lauderdale with a delay of 6 hours.
The occurrence aircraft returned to service about 12.5 hours after landing back.
