You're such a slob that there's $5.00 in loose change lying around on the floor when you get around to vacuuming?
WHat do you get out of the couch cushions? $100.00?
I guess I wish I was that rich. ;-)
Have Fun! Rich
I don't vacuum.. :P
Hotel cleaning staff on low wages might like electronics that sense if pennies, nickels or dimes are being suck up.

Why? that's just one MORE fan to break when struck and toss it's parts into the engine.(along with the other impellers..) ALso,extra obstructions means less airflow,more turbulence,and less efficiency.

Obviously,because sucking up a coin makes a lot of noise going thru the vacuum. The usual debris in a couch doesn't.

Only if the pilot has a specific procedure to follow for a bird strike. Otherwise its too much information.

Ever seen a real compressor blade? The engine already has hundreds of knives in the front. ;-)
He was saved by a loose helmet, which came off his head and essentially stopped the engine when it broke the compresser.

look for a step decrease in the tacho readings from the engine, it takes energy to shred a pidgeon and that energy is extracted all in a few milliseconds, it's going to slow the rotor. you'll need a reasonably high precision tacho as the slowdown will be

Only just noticed this thread.
The pilots tend to notice either the vibration or loss of power or the bang noise.
Graham
It's an oldie thread now.
From responses, I've concluded that there's little concern about birds being sucked into engines. It's not a big enough problem to warrant a detection system in the cowl. Also, it's not helpful to a pilot to know if an engine failure is due to an object sucked into an jet engine. No matter how an engine fails, the pilot follows a failed engine procedure.
